I got a two room flat with a view of the bridge
That crosses over into Arkansas
It's pretty to see all lit up at night Tips are good, waitin' tables
At a downtown restaurant
You sound a little surprised
That I might be doing all right Yeah, this is a big town
And I still get lost sometimes
A lot has changed since Montgomery
And when you said goodbye Lookin' back at where I was
I can see how far I've come
From a nobody with a broken heart
To feeling like someone Now you say you want me back
Oh boy, let me tell you this
It's a million miles
From Montgomery to Memphis There's nobody special, I'm not in love
Hasn't been anyone since you
Now isn't that what you wanted to hear me say? No, I got no plans
To be back in Montgomery anytime soon
Sure, we'll get together if you're headed up this way You could probably make it
In half a day or so
But you can't just walk back in again
Got a long, long way to go Looking back at where I was
I can see how far I've come
From a nobody with a broken heart
To feeling like someone Now you say you want me back
Oh boy, let me tell you this
It's a million miles
From Montgomery to Memphis Now you say you want me back
Oh boy, let me tell you this
It's a million miles
From Montgomery to Memphis Million miles
