Creole Girl - The Fureys/Davey Arthur[00:00:00]
Call it a journey of memories[00:00:21]
A journey to bring back the time[00:00:26]
Through those days of wild abandon[00:00:32]
When a young man was in his prime[00:00:37]
Call it a hopeless fantasy[00:00:42]
Trying to capture some long lost dreams[00:00:47]
When you fell for the dark eyed creole girl[00:00:52]
Who came from new orleans[00:00:58]
Take in the latin quarter[00:01:03]
The search for a familiar name[00:01:08]
But paris has changed since you left her[00:01:14]
And nothing much looks the same[00:01:19]
Fifi's cafe is now a strip club[00:01:24]
With the arabian dancing queens[00:01:29]
But not one can compare with the creole girl[00:01:34]
Who came from new orleans[00:01:40]
Perhaps it was too much to wish for[00:01:48]
Sometimes it's best to move on[00:01:53]
But just for the sake of memories[00:01:58]
I'll take a drink for the days long gone[00:02:03]
And i went into the cafe chanson[00:02:08]
And watched the world from tobacco stained screens[00:02:14]
And i thought of the dark eyed creole girl[00:02:19]
Who came from new orleans[00:02:25]
Bonsoir monsieur said the waitress[00:02:43]
And what can i get for you[00:02:48]
I said excuse me for asking this question[00:02:53]
But you remind me of someone i knew[00:02:59]
She laughed as if i was crazy[00:03:04]
This young girl just out of her teens[00:03:09]
But she looked like the dark eyed creole girl[00:03:14]
Who came from new orleans[00:03:20]
I stayed til the bar had emptied[00:03:25]
And we shared a bottle of wine[00:03:30]
I said i'm just trying to capture a memory[00:03:35]
Of love in a different time[00:03:41]
She said maybe you think of my mother[00:03:46]
We look so alike it seems[00:03:51]
She was known as the dark eyed creole girl[00:03:56]
Who came from new orleans[00:04:02]
How i loved the dark eyed creole girl[00:04:07]
Who came from new orleans[00:04:13]
