Elvis Lyrics

The song Elvis is performed by Sister Hazel in the album named Fortress in the year 2000 .

Oh I'll go away
Oh I'll go on my wordless way
Don't say anything
Say nothin', jus' leave me

'Cause I've been merely, an actor
In your painful play
But I feel too much to stay
Just cast me out

You can have the pictures
You can have the jacked up car
And take the book on meditation
I'll just take home what I brought

My, big painted velvet Elvis
Well it's my big painted velvet Elvis

We'll take it away
We'll take it all away
Don't leave anything
Leave nothin', except me

'Cause I've been sadly misinformed
Well I thought it mattered
A little more than this
I wish I was a thousand miles away yea

You can have the pictures
You can have the jacked up car
And take the book on meditation
I'll just take home what I brought

My, big painted velvet Elvis
Well it's my big painted velvet Elvis
Oh yea

Big painted velvet Elvis
Well I'm stumble what I make it through this
Oh yea

Well I'm frozen here
Caged in silence
It's better that I
Regret these words
Than to stand aside
And watch your tragic
An' storyline unfold
Just let me go

You can have the pictures
You can have the jacked up car
And take the book on meditation
I'll just take home what I brought

My, big painted velvet Elvis
Well it's my big painted velvet Elvis

Well you took my heart
And you took my soul
And you used me
I've had plenty of that
It gets harder and harder
And farther and farther
To what I need for me
Yea yea
Take it away
