lyrics

It was day time in the door way

It was nighttime in the bar

And I said to you there

From the opposite chair

There are so many questions in this life

But I wasn’t talking about Louisiana

I wasn’t talkin’ devastation

I wasn’t talkin’ common friends

I wasn’t talking about the cruel weather

I wasn’t talkin’ politicians

I wasn’t talkin’ faulty ground

What I was referring to was you and me

I could of brought up all that happened

I could of brought up all the lies

I could of started on things that went down twenty years ago

I guess I didn’t really feel like talkin’

Standin’ in that bar Mid City New Orleans

Where the day would quickly turn to night

Night would bring a whiskey round to the table

Whiskey’d bring a memory to mind

And I saw it for myself, I’d best keep things here tidy

But what I really wanted to tell you

Is about the shape you left me in

And what I really wanted to ask you

Is how you made it all right in your mind

And my dreams went on forever

And in spite of all the things gone wrong

I stayed long in one place in love with you

So we just talked about the music

And we embraced the atmosphere

And we drank a toast to all of those around us

It wasn’t time for stacking up the losses

I didn’t see a point in bending ears

So we just kept all our talk about Lousianna
