New Orleans Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wake up
I'll run up to the window
She's standing on the corner
Emotions made her follow
I see her in her red shoes
I slip out of the front door
And she starts up her car
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e119578-parachute~new_orleans_lyrics.html ]
[Verse 2]
She drives
We're heading for the city
That swimming in her bloodstream
That's pulsing in her heartbeat
I'm feeling watching over her
As she turns onto Canal Street
She's wide awake again

[Chorus 1]
Ooh, yeah
She swears it's in the air, you just have to believe
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Yes she comes alive down in New Orleans

[Verse 3]
We're runnin' by the river
The city lights are blazing
She looks like she could fly off
Like gravity is failing
Somewhere in the distance
A marching band is playing
She's wide awake again

[Chorus 2]
Ooh, yeah
She swears it's in the air, you just have to believe
Ooh, ooh
Yes she comes alive down in New Orleans
Ohh and there's something in her eyes that I've never seen
When she says to me, "I'm wide awake again"
Ooh, yeah
There's magic in the night down in New Orleans

[Bridge]
(Take me down to the water)
(Take me down to the water of New Orleans)
(Take me down to the water)
No I never had it figured out
Just a maze I've never known
But it's suddenly it's making sense
When she shows me all
The roses in the sidewalks
Like angels at her feet
And they're breaking through the pavement
To light her way through New Orleans
Ohh
Through New Orleans

[Chorus 2]
Ooh, yeah
She swears it's in the air, you just have to believe (you just have to believe)
Ooh, ooh
Yes she comes alive down in New Orleans
And oh there's something in her eyes that I've never seen
When she says to me, "I'm wide awake again"
Ooh, yeah
There's magic in the night down in New Orleans

[Outro]
(Take me down to the water)
(Take me down to the water of New Orleans)
(Take me down to the water)
(Take me down to the water, New Orleans)
