Galway To Graceland Lyrics - The High Kings - The High Kings

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"
