New Orleans Lyrics by King Charles

Gamble for a Rose

2016

I left you in a hotel in New Orleans
Said I was done for
I want to say how sorry I am
I left you in a foreign land
You were always a dream to me
But I thought one day you'll marry me
Chosen the evening the open road
You I'd say were my dreamgirl
You were my dream girl
We were young
I saw you again at the and of the door
You kissed me and kissed me
Then you were gone
You said my love turned you on
That is how I will remember New York
If I die tomorrow I will not falter
I've written you this song
So I know that you know
And there's nothing you can say
There's nothing you can do
If I live to be a hundred
I will always love you
Yeah
You were young
Yeah
You are young
I saw you again at the end of the door
You kissed me and kissed me
Then you were gone
I humbled for you (...) every breath
You came like a poisonous dose of death
Yeah
You are young
Yeah
You are young
There with you when I grew older
All the things I never told you
This is how I will remember
The passion that I could not surrender
I loved long
I loved long
I loved long
I loved long
Yeah
You are young
Yeah
You are young
Yeah
You are young
Yeah
You are young
