Mario Jefferson - New Orleans lyrics

[Verse 1] Kinda lonely in New Orleans Play the same old record Makes me think of when we first met So I wait 'til the phone rings Said you'd call me by the morning Why you hiding, darling? What you been up to, I'm bored [Chorus] I stay up all night, but I need love to keep me kind I can't do this anymore, who's gon' catch me when I fall? Why is there love if we born to die? I need us, keep me high I can't do this anymore, will you hold me when I'm gone? Or when you're gone? [Post-Chorus] Oh when you're gone [Verse 2] I light another Newport cigarette Take another sip, now you want my lips Find another way, we gotta switch I might even leave just to get you pissed Where is my baby? I've been waiting for you [Chorus] I stay up all night, but I need love to keep me kind I can't do this anymore, who's gon' catch me when I fall?? Why is there love if we born to die? I need us, to keep me high I can't do this anymore, will you hold me when I'm gone? Or when you're gone [Bridge] Tired of playing games All I'm trying to say is all you boys are the same The way I feel has changed I don't know if I could be yours I don't play a game All you boys are the same Everyone complains Not anymore (It's gotta be, gotta be more) It's got to be more [Chorus] I stay up all night, but I need love to keep me kind I can't do this anymore, who's gon' catch me when I fall? Why is there love if we born to die? I need us, keep me high I can't do this anymore, will you hold me when I'm gone? Or when you're gone
