Song | Moon Over Bourbon Street - Live In Paris |
Artist | Sting |
Album | Bring On The Night |
[00:00.29] | There's a moon over bourbon street tonight |
[00:06.83] | I see faces as they pass beneath the pale lamplight |
[00:15.76] | I've no choice but to follow that call |
[00:21.02] | The bright lights, the people, and the moon and all |
[00:30.62] | I pray everyday to be strong |
[00:37.70] | For I know what I do must be wrong |
[00:45.99] | Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet |
[00:53.39] | While there's a moon over bourbon street |
[01:13.30] | It was many years ago that I became what I am |
[01:20.38] | I was trapped in this life like an innocent lamb |
[01:27.79] | Now I can never show my face at noon |
[01:34.37] | And you'll only see me walking by the light of the moon |
[01:43.60] | The brim of my hat hides the eye of a beast |
[01:50.62] | I've the face of a sinner but the hands of a priest |
[01:57.28] | Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet |
[02:05.50] | While there's a moon over bourbon street |
[02:14.06] | She walks everyday through the streets of New Orleans |
[02:55.23] | She's innocent and young from a family of means |
[03:02.64] | I have stood many times outside her window at night |
[03:09.42] | To struggle with my instinct in the pale moonlight |
[03:18.78] | How could I be this way when I pray to god above |
[03:25.53] | I must love what I destroy and destroy the thing I love |
[03:33.00] | Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet |
[03:40.65] | While there's a moon over bourbon street |
[00:00.29] | There s a moon over bourbon street tonight |
