There's a moon over bourbon street tonight[00:00:01]
I see faces as they pass beneath the pale lamplight[00:00:08]
I've no choice but to follow that call[00:00:16]
The bright lights the people and the moon and all[00:00:24]
I pray everyday to be strong[00:00:31]
For I know what I do must be wrong[00:00:39]
Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet[00:00:46]
While there's a moon over bourbon street[00:00:54]
It was many years ago that I became what I am[00:01:14]
I was trapped in this life like an innocent lamb[00:01:21]
Now I can never show my face at noon[00:01:28]
And you'll only see me walking by the light of the moon[00:01:36]
The brim of my hat hides the eye of a beast[00:01:44]
I've the face of a sinner but the hands of a priest[00:01:51]
Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet[00:01:59]
While there's a moon over bourbon street[00:02:06]
She walks everyday through the streets of New Orleans[00:02:48]
She's innocent and young from a family of means[00:02:56]
I have stood many times outside her window at night[00:03:03]
To struggle with my instinct in the pale moonlight[00:03:10]
How could I be this way when I pray to god above[00:03:19]
I must love what I destroy and destroy the thing I love[00:03:26]
Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet[00:03:34]
While there's a moon over bourbon street[00:03:41]
