- Memphis Sun LyricsI’m on a wire above the water
I’m getting further from what I need
And now it’s too late to turn the corner
I’m getting higher and I just can’t see
[Chorus]
Ashes down below
The tide is turning slow
Time to move along
To catch the Memphis sun
Ashes down below
The tide is turning slow
I travel all day long
To catch the Memphis sun
Mhmm, the devil’s got my tongue
Open the window and wash me out to sea
I’m getting tired of turning water
[Chorus]
Ashes down below
The tide is turning slow
Time to move along
To catch the Memphis sun
Ashes down below
The tide is turning slow
I travel all day long
To catch the Memphis sun
Oh yeah, to catch the Memphis sun
Ooh, I’m getting tired
I’m getting higher
I’m getting high to catch the Memphis sun
I’m getting further from what I need
And now it’s too late to turn the corner
I’m getting higher and I just can’t see
[Chorus]
Ashes down below
The tide is turning slow
Time to move along
To catch the Memphis sun
Ashes down below
The tide is turning slow
I travel all day long
To catch the Memphis sun
Mhmm, the devil’s got my tongue
Open the window and wash me out to sea
[Chorus]
Ashes down below
The tide is turning slow
Time to move along
To catch the Memphis sun
Ashes down below
The tide is turning slow
I travel all day long
To catch the Memphis sun
Oh yeah, to catch the Memphis sun
Ooh, I’m getting tired
I’m getting higher
I’m getting high to catch the Memphis sun

The idea of catching the Memphis sun refers to the longing to attain lucidity and meaning in the midst of being overwhelmed and worn out, with the devil's pull and the necessity to release oneself from being stuck in a rut emphasized throughout the verses. Memphis sun lyrics primarily conveys the feelings of angst, reflection, despair, solitude and frustration. Yet, at the same time, the song points out the necessity of struggle and the practice of patience, the quest for hope and clarity and the process of transformation and change.
