It's not just the bedroom
Where she used to lay her head
Or the front room by the fire
Where we once passed the night instead
Though I have left these rooms
And gone as far as I could drive
Even in the motels along U S 405
Coast to coast and wall to wall
It's a memory not much more
Than five feet tall
But the shadow that it's casting
Seems to fall
Coast to coast and wall to wall
California seems like someplace
I could catch my breath
Get my mind off someone
Who still worries me to death
Even though she's gone
Her memory unlocks every door
Haunts me now in places
I have never seen before
Coast to coast and wall to wall
It's a memory not much more
Than five feet tall
But the shadow that it's casting
Seems to fall
Coast to coast and wall to wall
I'm rolling down the highway
Or strolling down the hall
Thinking things are going my way
And then a memory comes to call
And it's coast to coast and wall to wall
It's a memory not much more
Than five feet tall
But the shadow that it's casting
Seems to fall
Coast to coast and wall to wall
Coast to coast and wall to wall
It's a memory not much more
Than five feet tall
But the shadow that it's casting
Seems to fall
Coast to coast and wall to wall
Coast to coast and wall to wall
