Lyrics New Orleans - Parachute

Wake up
I run up to the window
She's standing on the corner
Motions me to follow
I see her in her red shirt
I slip out of the front door
And she starts up her car
She drives
We're heading for the city
That's swimming in her bloodstream
That's pulsing in her heartbeat
I feel it washing over her
As she turns onto Canal Street
She's wide awake again
Oooooooooooooooo yeah
She swears it's in the air
You just have to believe
Oooo Ooo Ooo Ooo
Ooo Ooo Ooo Ooo Ooo
Yes she comes alive down in New Orleans
We're running by the river
This city lights' ablazing
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
Oooooooooooooooo yeah
She swears it's in the air
You just have to believe
Oooo Ooo Ooo Ooo
Ooo Ooo Ooo Ooo Ooo
Yes she comes alive down in New Orleans
Oh and there's something in her eyes that I've never seen
When she says to me, I'm wide awake again
Oooooooooooooooo yeah
There's magic in the night down in New Orleans
Take me down to the water
Take me down to the water of New Orleans
(Take me down to the water)
No I've never had it figured out
(Take me down to the water of New Orleans)
Just a maze I never know
(Take me down to the water)
But suddenly it's making sense
(Take me down to the water of New Orleans)
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
Ohhhhhh oh through New Orleans
Oooooooooooooooo yeah
She swears it's in the air
You just have to believe (You just have to believe)
Oooo Ooo Ooo Ooo
Ooo Ooo Ooo Ooo Ooo
Yes she comes alive down in New Orleans
Oh and there's something in her eyes that I've never seen
When she says to me, I'm wide awake again
Oooooooooooooooo yeah
There's magic in the night down in New Orleans
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 of New Orleans
