Lihatlah Anda melalui cahaya bulan yang berkabut
Katydid sing like a symphony
Katydid bernyanyi seperti sebuah simfoni
Porch swing swayin’ like a Tennessee lullaby
Serambi ayunan bergoyang ‘seperti lagu pengantar tidur di Tennessee
Melody blowing through the willow tree
Melodi meniup pohon willow
What was I supposed to do
Apa yang harus kulakukan?
Standin’ there lookin’ at you
Berdiri di sana melihatmu
A lonely boy far from home
Anak kesepian jauh dari rumah
Maybe it was Memphis
Mungkin itu Memphis
Maybe it was southern summer nights
Mungkin malam musim panas selatan
Maybe it was you maybe it was me
Mungkin Anda mungkin itu saya
But it sure felt right
Tapi memang terasa benar
Read about you in a Faulkner novel
Baca tentang Anda dalam novel Faulkner
Met you once in a Williams play
Bertemu Anda sekali dalam drama Williams
Heard about you in a country love song
Mendengar tentang kamu di country love song
Summer nights beauty took my breath away
Keindahan malam musim panas membuatku terengah-engah
What was I supposed to do
Apa yang harus kulakukan?
Standin’ there lookin’ at you
Berdiri di sana melihatmu
A lonely boy far from home
Anak kesepian jauh dari rumah
Maybe it was Memphis
Mungkin itu Memphis
Maybe it was southern summer nights
Mungkin malam musim panas selatan
Maybe it was you maybe it was me
Mungkin Anda mungkin itu saya
But it sure felt right
Tapi memang terasa benar
Maybe it was Memphis
Mungkin itu Memphis
Maybe it was southern summer nights
Mungkin malam musim panas selatan
Maybe it was you maybe it was me
Mungkin Anda mungkin itu saya
But it sure felt right
Tapi memang terasa benar
Every night now once I’ve been back home
Setiap malam sekarang aku sudah kembali ke rumah
I lie awake at night drifting in my memory
Aku terbangun saat malam melayang dalam ingatanku
I think about you on your momma’s front porch swing
Aku memikirkanmu di ayunan depan momma depanmu
Talking that way so soft to me
Berbicara seperti itu sangat lembut bagiku
What was I supposed to do
Apa yang harus kulakukan?
Standin’ there lookin’ at you
Berdiri di sana melihatmu
A lonely boy far from home
Anak kesepian jauh dari rumah
Maybe it was Memphis
Mungkin itu Memphis
Maybe it was southern summer nights
Mungkin malam musim panas selatan
Maybe it was you maybe it was me
Mungkin Anda mungkin itu saya
But it sure felt right
Tapi memang terasa benar
Maybe it was Memphis
Mungkin itu Memphis
Maybe it was southern summer nights
Mungkin malam musim panas selatan
Maybe it was you maybe it was me
Mungkin Anda mungkin itu saya
But it sure felt right
Tapi memang terasa benar
Maybe it was you maybe it was me
Mungkin Anda mungkin itu saya
But it sure felt right
Tapi memang terasa benar
You know it sure felt right…
Anda tahu itu pasti terasa benar …
