Well it was out in california
By the san diego sea
That was when i was taken in
And it left its mark on me
Yeah it nearly drove me crazy
'cause i felt i had no choice
Yeah it seemed that i was only marking time
With all those sailor boys

Louisiana rain is falling at my feet
And i'm noticing a change
As i move down the street
Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes
I may never be the same
When i reach baton rouge

South carolina put out its arms for me
Right up until everything went black
Somewhere on a lonely street
And i still can't quite remember
Who helped me to my feet
But thank god for this long neck bottle
The angel's remedy

Louisiana rain is falling just like tears
Running down my face
Washing out the years
Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes
I may never be the same
When i reach baton rouge

Well i never will get over
This english refugee
Singing to the juke box in some
All-nite beanery
Yeah he was eating hard rock candy
And chasing it with tea
You should have seem him lick his lips
When he looked up at me

Louisiana rain is falling at my feet
And i'm noticing a change
As i move down the street
Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes
I may never be the same
When i reach baton rouge

There's no time now you said to be in love
Anyhow what is my life to you
Well there's no point it's true in pursuing you
And it's not that i can or i'd want to
But to be honest i'll say that there have been times
When i've desired a kiss or a smile
Once or twice you've shown the face i like
And it's affected me more than i'd want it to

But what's the use in telling you
If you don't feel the way i do
It's so very wrong to hold a love so strong
And never have the chance to share it

Bye bye now my sweet love
Bye bye now my sweet love
Bye bye those tears i cry
I need you only to say goodbye

And now and again when i don't feel so shy
I pretend to remember your name
When the eyes don't see the heart doesn't feel
And the distance between us remains

But what's the use in telling you
If you don't feel the way i do
It's so very wrong to hold a love so strong
And never get the chance to share it

What a way to treat my heart
You picked it up you broke it in half
What a way to let me know
You took my love and you let it go
What a way to treat my heart
Ooh what a way, what a way to treat my heart

I don't know much about
My feelings without you with me
I can't tell you what it's like
To spend each night alone
Don't understand what went wrong
We should've gone on and on

What a way to treat my heart
Ooh what a way
What a way to treat my heart

Like a star in the sky
You were someone who i looked up to
My direction was clear
When you were here with me
I don't understand what went wrong
We should've gone on and on

Baby if you ever need me again
There's no reason why we couldn't get it better than then
I still get a feeling that we should've held on but we said goodbye
I can t get over thinking our love was too young to die
So baby if you ever need me again
You know how i feel

Baby when another morning comes through
If i find myself thinking that it might be too much to lose oh too much when
Once in everybody's lifetime they say that you'll find
Someone who you wanna cling to and you might be mine
So baby if you ever need me again
You know how i feel

Words are all that we can say
They change your life or just a day
It all depends upon the way we say them
Words can sparkle like a star
In a letter from afar
It doesn't matter where you are they touch you
Words dancing in your head
Words you'd wish you'd said
When you hod the chance to say them
Words whispered in the night
Makes the world seem right
When you're looking for the answers
Words when the day has gone
Sometimes linger on
And haunt you like a love song

Words, words we mean to say
Somehow slip away
Tell me why they stay behind our lips
Words can be the sweetest song
The kind that makes you sing along
When everything is going wrong around you
Words, words can change your life
Cut you like a knife
Even though he really loves you
Words when the day has gone
Sometimes linger on
And haunt you like a love song
Words, words we mean to say
Somehow slip away
Tell me why they stay behind our 1ips
