Some times, when this place gets kin da emp ty,
the sound of the breath fades with the light,
I think a bout
the (F)love less fas ci na tion
un der the Mil ky Way to night.
Low er the cur tain down on Mem phis,
low er the cur tain down on me.
I got no time
for (F)pri vate con sul ta tion
un der the Mil ky Way to night.
Wish I knew what you were (Fmaj7)look ing for,
might have known what you would find.
And itβs some thing quite pe cu liar,
some thing shim mer ing and white.
It leads you here,

un der the Mil ky Way to night.
Wish I knew what you were (Fmaj7)look ing for,
