Lyrics Hamilton Leithauser – Isabella
Text:
«Gonna rock til dawn»
Isabella sings
«And when our dreaming dies away
Well, I’ll be glad I did»
«Well it’s after midnight
Gonna find some friends
Gonna waltz up ninety fourth street
In a wide-eyed trance»
«Gonna rock til dawn»
Isabella sings
«And when our dreaming dies away
Well, I’ll be glad I did»
All her younger sweethearts
Are star-struck wall-street wolves
She knows they’re always gonna down swinging
And she knows they’re always gonna fall
«Gonna rock til dawn»
Isabella sings
She did a year in a college around here
But she never left, and she never will
I wanna be there with her
Til they all go riding home
Well she can have a laugh and all that
Til they all go riding home
Til they all go riding home
At night I go to sleep
To the rhythm of the passing traffic
On Amsterdam Avenue
And I wonder, I wonder where you are
Sweet dreams never burned you out
Sweet dreams never burned you down
But none of them have answers now
When they all go riding home
When they all go riding home
