New Orleans Lyrics - Are You With Me? - Cowboy Mouth

The Texas sun beats down upon me 

like the devils smile 

I'd rather be anywhere else than here 

was it a blinding lack of subtlety 

or just a lack of style 

responding to the ways and means of fear 

Take me back to New Orleans 

And drop me at my door 

Cause I might love you yeah 

but I love me more 

My fingernails are bitten til 

there's nothing left but skin 

I'd rather be anyone else right now 

The light that shone within my eyes 

is slowly growing dim 

she told me where told me when 

but never said how 

Take me back to New Orleans 

And don't call me anymore 

Cause I might love you yeah 

but I love me more 

she's there 

how can I make this unhappen? 

I'm there 

You can not make this unhappen 

choose before your choices fade away 

She's there 

I could be home by tomorrow 

if I could beg steal or borrow 

I said 

You're there you might as well stay 

The morning mist arises 

through another crack in the glass 

The lack of sleep has made me numb 

But sometimes when she sleeps she'll turn 

and she'll whisper his name 

that cake must taste great but i'll pass 

when you offer me some 

Take me back to New Orleans 

And drop me at my door 

Cause I might love you yeah 

but I love me more 

Take me back to New Orleans 

And don't call me anymore 

Cause I might love you yeah 

I might love you yeah 

I might love you yeah 

but I love me more 

but I love me more 

but I love me more
