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 slipped out of the back door and 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 she left everything
She went from Galway to Graceland to be with the king
She was humming "Suspicion", the song she loved best
She had "Elvis, I love you" tattooed on her breast
When they landed in Memphis her heart beat so fast
She had dreamed for so long, now she'd see him at last
And she knelt by his graveside day after day
And come closing time they would pull her away
To be with her sweetheart, she left everything
She went from Galway to Graceland to be with the king
In their thousands they came from the whole human race
Just 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 her, or that's how it seemed
And when they dragged her away, it was handcuffs this time
She said, "My dear man, are you out of your mind?
Don't you know that we're married? See, I'm wearing his ring?
I've come from Galway to Graceland to be with the king
I've 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 dos fundos e entrou na noite
E asas prateadas a levaram sobre o mar
Da costa oeste da Irlanda até o oeste do Tennessee
Para ficar com seu amor, deixou tudo pra trás
Ela foi de Galway a Graceland para ficar com o rei
Ela estava cantando "Suspicion", a música que mais amava
Tinha "Elvis, eu te amo" tatuado no peito
Quando pousaram em Memphis, seu coração disparou
Ela sonhou por tanto tempo, agora finalmente o veria
E ela se ajoelhava ao lado do túmulo dia após dia
E quando chegava a hora de fechar, a puxavam pra longe
Para ficar com seu amor, deixou tudo pra trás
Ela foi de Galway a Graceland para ficar com o rei
Em milhares, vieram de toda a raça humana
Só para prestar suas homenagens em seu último descanso
Mas cegamente ela se ajoelhava e contava seus sonhos
E achou que ele respondeu, ou assim parecia
E quando a arrastaram, eram algemas dessa vez
Ela disse: "Meu querido, você tá louco?
Não sabe que somos casados? Olha, tô usando o anel dele?
Eu vim de Galway a Graceland para ficar com o rei
Eu vim de Galway a Graceland para ficar com o rei"
