nanci griffith – year down in new orleans lyrics
Loading...
i truly need … a year down in new orleans,
the hum of a southern drawl that i could understand
and should you meet … my sweetheart in new orleans
kindly p-ss my heart into the safety of his hands
i remember clover … in the fields south of new orleans
and we ran so blindly through the fields of summer cane
now when i’m lonely … i send my heart down to new orleans
to chase my memories alone down through my dreams
how i miss the clarity i left there in my youth
will there be another heart who can endure my solitude?
his roses grow … so lovely in new orleans
their petals do recall the mysteries in his eyes
now, should you go … to that garden in new orleans
kindly tend a rose beside his heart for me … and sigh
