What can I say? She was a doozy. This song is about the plans and promises that die with the end of a relationship. I had always wanted to write a song with her, but we never did. I don't know why. It just never happened. A lot of things we planned never happened. A road trip to Memphis, getting married in autumn, growing old together... Here are the lyrics: The Song We Never Wrote Copyright 2004 Narciso Lobo We jumped in the Jeep and left town It was tough to take the top down We hit highway 57 like a buck and wing The lazy sun was setting All our cares we were forgetting 500 miles and change to the city of the king We only had one more hour When the skies began to shower Kissing in the southern rain made my knees get weak We thanked the barkeep that saved us And the Graceland gods that gave us Sweet Memphis blues to sway to cheek to cheek Oh, my, my I cannot tell a lie But these words have a hard time coming out of my throat Oh, well, well It's a story I had to tell I just thought I'd write the song we never wrote On a day I'll always remember We got married in September The leaves on your bare feet just made me cry You sang and I played guitar Mahal kita (I love you) I'm the luckiest man on earth, and that's no lie We flew off to take a Honeymoon down in Jamaica We swore by the reggae beat we would never part To our bungalow we go To turn our lights down low And make ourselves at home under the island stars Oh, my, my I cannot tell a lie But these words have a hard time coming out of my throat Oh, well, well It's a story I had to tell I just thought I'd write the song we never wrote It sets my heart aglow To watch our family grow Ain't no better way a man could spend his time Through all life's aches and pains My love for you remains I'll stay right here with you until the day I die This song is yours to keep I guess it just put you to sleep I'll carry you upstairs; you just go on snoring I'll kiss you on your head And tuck you into bed Good night, my love, sleep tight; see you in the morning Oh, my, my I cannot tell a lie These words have a hard time coming out of my throat Oh, well, well It's a story I had to tell I just thought I'd write the song we never wrote
