In Person

When a place becomes immortalized In song or written word, You wonder if the image matches What you've read or heard. It's similar to when you get A real-life close-up look At a painting you have only seen In prints or in a book. So now I've been to Memphis, Every song will be more real - I'll understand the references To music heard on Beale. I've stood at the Lorraine Motel Where Dr. King was shot; It all was so familiar, I was rooted to the spot. The picture only comes alive When you are there, up close. If travel is the cure, I recommend a double dose!
