Standin' on the corner Of Toulouse and Dauphine Waitin' on Marie-Ondine I'm tryin' to place a tune Under a Louisiana moonbeam On the planet of New Orleans In a bar they call The Saturn And in her eyes of green And somethin' that she said in a dream

When the night will begin Fact you wanna turn back your heart will attack Even if she falls in love There she was like a starry night Like a Ferris wheel, full of blue green eyes And a heart of steel always on her own Almost never real The pain it won't

When she loves me When my baby loves me, She lays it all on the line. When she loves me, Her hair is red And her eyes are green She's soft and tender But she can be mean She knows what it takes to keep me
