I’ve died a thousand times since you left me Stared down the barrel of a thousand loaded guns There’s a midnight ride on a fast train headed somewhere I’ll be born again with the rising of the sun Resurrection, resurrection
I woke with dawn washing over Memphis Seeing through the eyes of a newborn child I know you always hated Elvis So I think I might just stay here for awhile
Resurrection, resurrection, resurrection
Cheap perfume and cheaper whiskey She gave me a wink as she yelled out last call And when the parking lot was empty We made love in a bathroom stall (yeah, we did)
Oh resurrection, resurrection, resurrection yeah
So I hope this postcard finds you lonely I hope you’re as lost when I was when you left me By the way I guess I should probably thank you Cause a broken heart is the only way to be set free
