Elusive Dreams (featuring Lee Hazlewood) Lyrics

Elusive Dreams (featuring Lee Hazlewood) lyrics

I followed you to Texas

I followed you to Utah

We didn't find it there

So we moved on



I followed you to Alabama

Things looked good in Birmingham

We didn't find it there

So we moved on



I know you're tired of following

My elusive dreams and schemes

For they're only fleeting things

My elusive dreams



I had your child in Memphis

You heard of work in Nashville

We didn't find it there

So we moved on



To a small farm in Nebraska

To a gold mine in Alaska

We didn't find it there

So we moved on



And now we've left Alaska

Because there was no goldmine



But this time only two of us move on

And now, now we have each other

And a little memory to cling to

And still you won't let me go on alone



I know you're tired of following

My elusive dreams and schemes

For they're only fleeting things

My elusive dreams
