Parachute - New Orleans lyrics

Wake up i'll run up to the window
She's standing on the corner
And motions me to follow
I see her in her red shoes
I slip out of the front door
And she starts up her car

She drives we're heading for the city
That 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

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

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

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

(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

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

(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)
