It's obviously about where Elvis and his family are buried. In the backyard of Graceland in Memphis. The space left is for her (Lisa). There is a huge lawn she used to play on with her parents in a golf cart. It's Lisa Maria as an adult looking back. She's sad he died so long ago and she was so young.
She really did set her watch 2 hours behind because he was always late.
Her perception as the daughter of Elvis.
@Lorz She kept her watch set two hours behind because that was "Memphis Time." Not because her Dad was late. I used to know her very casually before she started her singing career.
WE were somewhere once (I prefer not say) and she walked by and sat down. A mutual friend was kidding me about me keeping my watch on NYC time, which I did, and said that she kept hers on Memphis time. We compared watches and told her someone had given me a two time-zone watch, and she said, "That's cheating then, isn't it?"...

It's about having one foot in the present and one foot in the past, which causes you to stumble, a word she also uses. I was wearing a button on my canvas bag that said "Recovering New Yorker" and she liked that. She said she wanted one that said she wanted one like it that said "Recovering Memphian"
@Lorz she set her watch 2 hours behind to Tennessee Time because after her mom left Graceland with her they lived in California, she still always lived on Tennessee time, and by her watch, (where her heart was)... but lived on the West Coast with her mom..

@Lorz ..... your perception is right on..... my watch is set years behind....when my brother crossed over in 1979.... nothing heals the heart.
