New Orleans

(album: Gamble For A Rose - 2016)

I left you in a hotel in New Orleans
Said I was done for
I want to say how sorry I am
I left you in a foreign land.

You were always a dream to me
but I thought one day you'll marry me
Chosen the evening the open road
you I'd say were my dreamgirl.

You were my dream girl
We were young

I saw you again at the and of the door
you kissed me and kissed me
then you were gone
you said my love turned you on
that is how I will remember New York

If I die tomorrow I will not falter
I've written you this song
so I know that you know
and there's nothing you can say
there's nothing you can do
if I live to be a hundred
I will always love you

Yeah
You were young
Yeah
You are young

I saw you again at the end of the door
you kissed me and kissed me
then you were gone
I humbled for you (...) every breath
you came like a poisonous dose of death

Yeah
You are young
Yeah
You are young

There with you when I grew older
all the things I never told you
this is how I will remember
the passion that I could not surrender

I loved long
I loved long
I loved long
I loved long

Yeah
You are young
Yeah
You are young
Yeah
You are young
Yeah
You are young
