You followed me to Texas, you followed me to Utah
We didn't find it there, so we moved on
You went with me to Alabama, things look good in Birmingham
We didn't find it there, so we moved on
I know you're tired of following my illusions
My elusive dreams and schemes, for they're only fleeting things
My elusive dreams
You had my child in Memphis, then I heard a word 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
Now we've left Alaska
Because there was no gold mine
But this time only two of us
Moved on
And now all we have is 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 illusive dreams and schemes
For they're only fleeting things
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
My illusive dreams
For they're only fleeting things
My illusive dreams
