Lyrics Next to You (In New Orleans) - John Nolan

Next to You (In New Orleans)

If we left now we’d be there by midnight
Walking streets made of cobblestone
Drinking beer in the autumn moonlight
Holding hands and smiling slow
Oh, I’d give anything to be next to you in New Orleans
On the way there we’d talk for hours
We’d understand what no one knows
We’d see the silent hypnotic power
Of the setting sun on the open road
Oh, I’d give anything to be on that road to New Orleans
I’m so tired of all this wishing
I’m so tired of this town
There’s just something I’ve been missing
Let’s pack our bags and leave right now
Oh, I can’t wait to be there
I can’t wait to be there
Next to you in New Orleans
