Testo Nola Honeymoon - Beans On Toast
Testo della canzone Nola Honeymoon (Beans On Toast), tratta dall'album The Grand Scheme of Things
Well I've never missed you quite as much
As I did that night in New Orleans
In the Spotted Cat on Frenchmen Street
You should have heard this woman sing
Transported to a timeless place
Where everything was magical
And baby all it made me do
Is think about you
You're twenty thousand miles away
Probably getting up for work
Awoken by a saxophone
On the other side of the world
It feels like you can hear me
As I propose my love to you
I'm coming home tomorrow
And I've got something that I wanna ask you
And we'll eat oysters and crawfish and seafood all day
And we'll dance all evening
Make love all night
In a cheap motel on the banks of the Mississippi
Well I'm coming home tomorrow with a question for you
I'd like to bring you back here one day
For a New Orleans honeymoon
I know that you would love it here
The city would look good on you
Catch a necklace from the sky
Feel the wind and feel the voodoo
Playful proud and positive
The daughter of a summer's day
They'll be dancing in the street
The minute that the brass band plays
A song about the number
Is it fifty-one or forty-six?
It doesn't really matter
Cause the song belongs to both of us
It's written in the river
And you can hear it when the buskers sing
I'll love you forever
That's why I'm bringing home a ring
And we'll eat oysters and crawfish and seafood all day
And we'll dance all evening
Make love all night
In a cheap motel on the banks of the Mississippi
Well I'm coming home tomorrow with a question for you
I'd like to bring you back here one day
For a New Orleans honeymoon
Well I bought this ring on Royal Street
From a little family jewelry shop
Reminds me of the perfumery
In my favorite Tom Robbins book
With aloe bar and kudra
And a love that is immortal
So if you choose to wear it
That's exactly what it stands for
Through life and death and space and time
Comedy and tragedy
I'll love you forever baby
Will you marry me?
And we'll eat oysters and crawfish and seafood all day
And we'll dance all evening
Make love all night
In a cheap motel on the banks of the Mississippi
Well I'm coming home tomorrow with a question for you
I'd like to bring you back here as my wife
On a New Orleans honeymoon
