My Elusive Dreams — текст песни (Tom Jones)

You followed me to Texas, you followed me to Utah,
We didn`t find it there so we moved on.
Then you went with me to A-la-bam`,
Things looked good in Birmingham,
We didn`t find it there so we moved on.
I know you`re tired of fol-low-ing
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.
I know you`re tired of fol-low-ing
My elusive dreams and schemes
For they`re only fleeting things,
My elusive dreams.

Now we`ve left A-las-ka because thewas 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 elusive dreams and schemes
For they`re only fleeting things,
My elusive dreams.
