My Elusive Dreams

My Elusive Dreams - David Houston

Written by：PUTMAN/CURLY/SHERRILL BILLY

I followed you to texas

I followed you to utah

We didn't find it there

So we moved on

I follow you to alabama

Things looked good in birmingham

We didn't find it there

So we moved on

I know you're tired of followin'

My elusive dreams and schemes

For they're only fleeting things

My elusive dreams

I had your child in memphis

You heard of work in nashville

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

And now we've left alaska

Because there was no gold mine

But this time

Only two of us moved on

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 followin'

My elusive dreams and schemes

For they're only fleeting things

My elusive dreams

For they're only fleeting things

My elusive dreams
