Memphis

[Verse 1]

Plane ride 5 A.M.​

How'd we end up at a dirty hotel down in Memphis?

You're a bedroom guy, I'm a bedroom girl

But you know it don't mean the same thing

Demolition guy, shout out loud

You know, you are depressing

Does your mother care? Does she still pray?

By this time next, you'll be married

And you'll quit your job, and I bet you will

Bet you'll never come back to Memphis

(I bet you won't)

[Chorus]

Plane ride 5 A.M.​

How'd we end up at a dirty hotel down in Memphis?

You're a bedroom guy, I'm a bedroom girl

But you know it don't mean the same thing

Demolition guy, shout out loud

You know, you are depressing

Does your mother care? Does she still pray?

By this time next, you'll be married

And you'll quit your job, and I bet you will

Bet you'll never come back to Memphis

I bet you'll never come back to Memphis

[Verse 2]

What's that stereo?

Ooh-la-la, bet you didn't have one in Memphis

Where's your heart? Play your favorite record

And maybe we can relate more

I'm an Avril kid, yes, I said it

I loved her, I am a human

Feel sixty-four, feel thirty-four

I'm twenty-four, you're just a robot

And it's so serene, think I'm relaxing

And I'm feeling all so important

Let's take a trip, give me a kiss

Don't wanna sit on this

[Chorus]

Where's your stereo?

Ooh-la-la, bet you didn't have one in Memphis

Where's your heart? Play your favorite record

And maybe we can relate more

I'm an Avril kid, yes, I said it

I loved her, I am a human

Feel sixty-four, feel thirty-four

I'm twenty-four, you're just a robot

And it's so serene, think I'm relaxing

And I'm feeling all so important

Let's take a trip, give me a kiss

Don't wanna sit on this

And you'll never come back to Memphis

[Bridge]

Ringtone, echoes, delay

Missing you isn't something that I am used to

Did you expect? I could not expect

The way that I feel about you

Let's run away, let's get away

We can choose a house on the hillside

With a wooden fence, I can stay at home

Wear my hair up nice, with the children

I'll be a loving mom, won't judge at all

And we'll never go back to Memphis

And when you cry, just remember that

[Chorus]

When deep cuts are piercing through

You know that you can always cry on my shoulder

Those skyscrapers feel like sandpaper

I know how words can hurt you

You're a warrior, my warrior

You know I'll be the armor

A tender heart, when we connect

And you let go, you are perfect

Don't be afraid, don't be afraid

We'll never go back to Memphis

And I'll never go back to Memphis
