I told her I loved her
That night in New Orleans
And I saw her face
But I still don´t know
What it means
And the air was growing heavy
And the fog was rolling in
And the cobblestones
Were slick with the rain
And I could nearly taste
The storm that was coming in
But I opened up my mouth anyway
And the stones went and shattered
And the wet came pouring down
Till I couldn’t tell the difference
Between my own and borrowed sound
And she left me broken hearted
Oh I could barely breathe
On that rainy night
Down in New Orleans
