Modern Blue Lyrics - The River & The Thread - Rosanne Cash

I went to Barcelona on the midnight train 

I walked the streets of Paris in the pouring rain 

I flew across and island in the Northern Sea 

And I ended up in Memphis, Tennessee 

I keep my head down, I keep my eyes on you 

It's a big wide world with a million shades of modern blue 

Everybody round here runs too fast 

And it feels so good but it's never gonna last 

Everything I have for us what I knew 

But I don't have nothing if I don't have you 

I keep my head down, I keep my eyes on you 

It's a big wide world with a million shades of modern blue 

Will you still be there when I round the curve? 

Will you hold my hand when I lose my nerve? 

Oh I went to Barcelona and my mind got changed 

So I'm heading back to Memphis on the midnight train
