作词 : Allan Taylor 作曲 : Allan Taylor Creole Girl written by Allan Taylor sung by Allan Taylor
Call it a journey of memories A journey to bring back the time Through the days of wild abandon When a young man was in his prime Call it hopeless fancy Trying to capture some long lost dreams When you fell for the dark-eyed Creole girl Who came from New Orleans
Take in the Latin Quarter And search for a familiar name But Paris has changed since you left her And nothing much looks the same Phify's café's now a strip club With the "Arabian Dancing Queens" But not one can compare with the Creole girl Who came from New Orleans
Perhaps it was too much to wish for Sometimes it's best to move on But just for the sake of the memory I'll take a drink for the days long gone I went into the Café Chanson And watched the word through tobacco stained screens I though of the dark-eyed Creole girl Who came from New Orleans
"Bonsoir Monsieur" said the waitress "What can I get for you?" I said "Excuse me for asking this question But you remind me of someone I knew" She laughed as if I was crazy This young girl just out of her teens But she looked like the dark-eyed Creole girl Who came from New Orleans
I stayed ‘til the bar had emptied And we shared a bottle of wine I said "I'm just trying to capture a memory Of love in a different time" She said "Maybe you think of my mother We look so much alike it seems She was know as the dark-eyed Creole girl Who came from New Orleans"
How I love the dark-eyed Creole girl Who came from New Orleans
