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
