Memphis - Janis Ian (珍妮斯·艾恩)[00:00:00]
We were standing by the river [00:00:17]
Staring into town[00:00:24]
All the world was on his shoulders[00:00:31]
The tears were raining down[00:00:39]
All along the Southern skyline [00:00:45]
City lights began to bloom[00:00:52]
He said if you only knew her[00:01:00]
The way that I do sir [00:01:04]
You would be crying too[00:01:08]
If you could see Memphis the way that I do [00:01:15]
She would look different to you[00:01:22]
Queen of the Delta tip your tiara[00:01:29]
Memphis the belle of the blues[00:01:37]
The streets were filled with cotton[00:01:49]
And music filled the air[00:01:55]
All the paddle boats came rolling[00:02:02]
From east of everywhere[00:02:09]
Now the streets are filled with silence[00:02:16]
And songs no one can hear [00:02:24]
But her memory lingers[00:02:31]
It slips through my fingers [00:02:35]
And into this river of tears[00:02:38]
If you could see Memphis the way that I do [00:02:46]
She would look different to you[00:02:53]
Queen of the Delta tip your tiara[00:03:00]
Memphis the belle of the blues[00:03:08]
So roll on roll on[00:03:39]
My sweet magnolia roll on[00:03:47]
How the memory lingers[00:03:54]
It slips through my fingers[00:03:58]
And into this river of tears[00:04:02]
If you could see Memphis the way that I do [00:04:09]
She would look different to you[00:04:16]
Queen of the Delta tip your tiara[00:04:24]
Memphis the belle of the blues[00:04:31]
Memphis the belle of the blues[00:04:42]
