"Louise" lyrics

The Deslondes & Dan Cutler Lyrics

"Louise"

Louise, you taught me love I can't unlearn
But I left so long ago, I can't return
And it's for you and you alone I feel the pain
And it's for you when I'm alone I cry in vain

And you know you were the sweetest thing I found
But I had to catch that train on out of town
And like that train, I'm destined to this ramblin' life
I bear the burden of your love through these lost and lonely nights

But tonight, Louise, I'll outrun these memories
I'm gonna laugh and dance, take a chance and smile
And I know come tomorrow, you'll be back to bring me sorrow
But tonight, I'm lettin' go, just for a while

There comes a time, when a man must move along
Down the road, to all the places he belongs
But my heart belongs to you
I just had to let it go, s'nothing else that I could do

Louise, you were the sweetest thing I found
But I had to catch that train on out of town
And like that train, I'm destined to this ramblin' life
I bear the burden of your love through these lost and lonely nights

But tonight, Louise, I'll outrun these memories
I'm gonna laugh and dance, take a chance and smile
And I know come tomorrow, you'll be back to bring me sorrow
But tonight, I'm lettin' go, just for a while

Well, Louise, I'm lettin' go just for a while
