Elvis Has Not Left the Building

I saw Elvis the other day I said hi and he said hey We walked together down a street Stood outside Sun studios He talked about a record deal It was all so surreal! A pink Cadillac appeared next to me We drove the quiet sun filled streets Walked up to Graceland he did with me There was nobody else anywhere around He made a drink and we sat down I asked him what he was doing now He smiled and told me he was free I asked about his life and he Spoke some words to me Words I can't explain he said to me Then I had to leave, I shook his hand Walked away from Graceland back down a sreet I woke up to hear a tune Crying in the chapel humming somewhere in another room It was so surreal I managed to get back to sleep Then something strange that had never happened to me I went straight back to the same dream I walked into a coffee shop Heard a tune to the right of me I turned to see and couldn't believe Elvis was sat there next to me.
