Do you know what it means to miss new orleans
And miss it each night and day
I know I'm not wrong... this feeling's gettin' stronger
The longer, I stay away
Miss them moss covered vines...the tall sugar pines
Where mockin' birds used to sing
And I'd like to see that lazy mississippi...hurryin' into spring
The moonlight on the bayou.......a creole tune.... that fills the air
I dream... about magnolias in bloom......and I'm wishin' I was there

Do you know what it means to miss new orleans
When that's where you left your heart
And there's one thing more...i miss the one I care for
More than I miss new orleans

(instrumental break)

The moonlight on the bayou.......a creole tune.... that fills the air
I dream... about magnolias in bloom......and I'm wishin' I was there

Do you know what it means to miss new orleans
When that's where you left your heart




And there's one thing more...i miss the one I care for
More.....more than I miss.......new orleans

I've noticed that once i changed the man, my vaginal health changed tremendously. It's possible to use all these products but still have the crazy symptoms, reoccurring because you're probably sleeping with an unfaithful partner. So i would say it's important to have a partner who's only being intimate with you and who's just as thoughtful about your vaginal health so you can avoid using acidic products for longer periods, which will probably cause more damage. So until you're sure, just use a condom or abstain. I'm definitely a fan of anything with cranberry and plain yogurt. Lots of fruit as well, especially pineapple. The more natural, the better.

Yes that unfaithful partner will always be the down fall of our ph balance smh. That's the key part we rarely discuss!
