I followed you to Texas, I followed you to UtahWe didn't find it there, so we moved onI went with you to Alabama, things looked good in BirminghamWe didn't find it there, so we moved onI know you're tired of followin'My elusive dreams and schemesFor they're only fleeting thingsMy elusive dreamsYou had your child in Memphis, then I heard of work in NashvilleWe didn't find it there, so we moved onTo a small farm in Nebraska, to a gold mine in AlaskaWe didn't find it there, so we moved onAnd now we've left AlaskaBecause there was no gold mineBut this time, only two of us moved onAnd now all we have is each otherAnd a little memory to cling toAnd still you won't let me go on aloneI know you're tired of followin'My elusive dreams and schemesFor they're only fleeting thingsMy elusive dreamsFor they're only fleeting thingsMy elusive dreams
