On My Knees

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

And things looked good in Birmingham

We didn't find it there

So, we moved on

I know you're tired of following

My elusive dreams and schemes

For they're only fleeting things

My elusive dreams

You had my child in Memphis

Then I heard of work in Nashville

But 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

Cause there was no gold there

But this time

Only two of us moved on

Now all we have is each other,

And a little memory to cling to

Still you won't let me go

Go on alone

I know you're tired of following

My elusive dreams and schemes

For they're only fleeting things

My elusive dreams
