Adam Wheatley - Goodnight New Orleans lyrics

Goodnight New Orleans You took me in and took me down Wish I had known I wanted nothing more Than to see your sunrise open up my eyes But the day won't come Love only rides on hope so long Before there's work to be done Goodnight New Orleans Saint Charles is fading from my mind No, you're not my home Your sky was burning With colors that have paled to black and white Yeah, your fire is gone Love only rides on hope so long Before there's work to be done Goodnight New Orleans I'm leaving Jackson Square behind No, I won't come around Love only rides on hope so long Before there's work to be done Time keeps on singing me her song I guess ours is gone
