[Verse 1]
Sometimes when this place gets kind of empty
Some of the breath fades with the light
I think about this loveless fascination
Under the Milky Way tonight
[Verse 2]
Lower the curtain down on Memphis
Lower the curtain down, alright
I got no time for private consultation
Under the Milky Way tonight
[Chorus]
Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find
[Verse 3]
And it's something quite peculiar
Something shimmering and white
It leads you here, despite your destination
Under the Milky Way tonight
[Chorus]
Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find
Wish I knew what you were looking for
Might have known what you would find
[Verse 4]
And it's something quite peculiar
Something shimmering and white
It leads you here, despite your destination
Under the Milky Way tonight
[Outro]
Under the Milky Way tonight
Under the Milky Way tonight
