I'Ve Got Graceland On My Mind

I've got Graceland on my mind
A place frozen in time
Adorned with a love
I've never known
I need to be in the place
Where Elvis called home
I want to laugh in the lemon lounge
And visit in the jungle room
Graceland don't change a thing
I want to get lost in the home of the king
I've got Graceland on my mind
It's where i want to be
I've got Graceland on my mind
It feels so sweet to me
I've got Graceland on my mind
It's where i need to be
I've got Graceland on my mind
It feels so real to me
I want to sit on that long leather couch
And dream all my troubles away
Graceland wait for me
I'm leaving today
It's where an icon once lived
A place where dreams come true
It's where life can still be found
I'm going down to Graceland now
May we all gather at Graceland
To share in the dream
And on my way down to Graceland
I'll stop in on the Reverend Al Green
