Sad song of frenchtown,Hamony and rhyme
　　Blind man walks the street, silver cane beating out time
　　Saxophone plays a haunting tune
　　Magnolia blossom, heavy perfume
　　He stands at the window, looking out of the street
　　
　　A dark-skinned lady lies in his bed, resstless in the heat
　　She smiles in her sleep and quietly sights
　　Hanging on to promises and lovers' lies
　　
　　Chorus:
　　Two old lovers trying to make it again
　　Just like it used to be way back when
　　Somehow he loved her but it all went wrong
　　They just ran out of time, they couldn't wait that long
　　
　　He turns from the window and watches her sleep
　　Same loving feeling, old love runs deep
　　Shadows are fading, the sun is starting to rise
　　He lies beside her and kisses her eyes
