Noelie

i can still hear your name
on carson street
i remember that old place
where we used to meet
all the creatures were out
all our troubles were far
put all our worries away
lost beneath the city stars

i don’t mind you saying you loved me
giving me enough to survive
now i don’t mind you still thinking of me babe
even after all this time… but

noelie are you through with me?
you’re a fantasy
noelie are you through with me?
we’ve got history

there were endless days
on carson street
there were so many ways
you threw me off my feet
had some renegade lights
on the crooked street
had some chilly nights
but we still felt the heat

i don’t mind you saying you loved me
giving me enough to survive
now i don’t mind you still thinking of me babe
even after all this time… but

noelie are you through with me?
you’re a fantasy
noelie are you through with me?
we’ve got history

staying up after a late night working
come home to set the turntable on
smoking cigarettes out of your window
as the city was sleeping on…

i still remember the cold
on the long walk home
i thought about being old
you thought about being alone
but with the music on
there was nothing to fear
i held you in my arms
said we would get out of here, yeah
out of here…

noelie are you through with me?
you’re a fantasy
noelie are you through with me?
we’ve got history…
