From Galway to Graceland
Oh she dressed in the dark and she whispered amen
She was pretty in pink like a young girl again
Twenty years married and she never thought twice
She sneaked out the door and walked into the night
And silver wings carried her over the sea
From the west coast of Ireland to West Tennessee
To be with her sweetheart, oh she left everything
From Galway to Graceland to be with the king
She was humming Suspicion, that's the song she liked best
She had Elvis I Love You tattooed on her breast
When they landed in Memphis, well her heart beat so fast
She'd dreamed for so long, now she'd see him at last
She was down by his graveside day after day
Come closing time they would pull her away
Ah to be with her sweetheart, oh she'd left everything
From Galway to Graceland to be with the king
Ah, they came in their thousands from the whole human race
To pay their respects at his last resting place
But blindly she knelt there and she told him her dreams
And she thought that he answered or that's how it seems
Then they dragged her away it was handcuffs this time
She said my good man are you out of your mind.
Don't you know that we're married? See, I'm wearing his ring.
From Galway to Graceland to be with the king.
I come From Galway to Graceland to be with the king
De Galway a Graceland
Oh, ela se vestiu no escuro e sussurrou amém
Ela estava linda de rosa, como uma jovem de novo
Vinte anos casada e nunca pensou duas vezes
Ela saiu pela porta e caminhou na noite
E asas prateadas a levaram sobre o mar
Da costa oeste da Irlanda até o Oeste do Tennessee
Para estar com seu amor, oh, ela deixou tudo
De Galway a Graceland para ficar com o rei
Ela estava cantando Suspicion, essa era a música que mais gostava
Ela tinha Elvis I Love You tatuado no peito
Quando pousaram em Memphis, seu coração batia tão rápido
Ela sonhou por tanto tempo, agora finalmente o veria
Ela estava ao lado do túmulo dele dia após dia
Quando chegava a hora de fechar, a puxavam pra longe
Ah, para estar com seu amor, oh, ela deixou tudo
De Galway a Graceland para ficar com o rei
Ah, eles vieram em milhares de toda a raça humana
Para prestar suas homenagens em seu último descanso
Mas cegamente ela se ajoelhou e contou a ele seus sonhos
E achou que ele respondeu, ou assim parecia
Então a arrastaram pra longe, era algema dessa vez
Ela disse, meu bom homem, você está fora de si?
Você não sabe que somos casados? Veja, estou usando o anel dele.
De Galway a Graceland para ficar com o rei.
Eu venho de Galway a Graceland para ficar com o rei.
