Memphis Skyline (Lyric) by wilco

I remember sitting on the banks in the January night Looking for the remnants of the last December light. And the houses on the hill are watching as the riverboats drift by And it seems like only yesterday I was under the Memphis sky. So cancel all your New Years plans because I’m coming home. I don’t remember any of this and I don’t want to be alone Everything looks perfect here but no one’s quite the same. I’ve been gone a bit too long and it seems I’m lost again. All I want is to be honest, but the past keeps telling lies I’m sorry that I answered so fast and I’m sorry I made you cry. And the houses on the hill are watching as the riverboats drift by And it seems like only yesterday I was under the Memphis sky. So cancel all your New Years plans because I’m coming home. I don’t remember any of this and I don’t want to be alone.

I remember ordering dinner at a Ponderosa Steakhouse in Dallas. The waitress stopped me in mid-sentence to tell me, "Y'all sure do talk funny." I guess it goes both ways. Sorry to mention that "Y'all sure do talk funny."
