Don't cry Joni

Lyrics:
Woman - Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
I'll grow up someday you'll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with love forever true

Man - Joni was the girl who lived next door
I've known her I guess 10 years or more
Joni wrote me a note one day
And this is what she had to say

Woman -Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
I'll grow up someday you'll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with love forever true

Man - Slowly I read her note once more
Then I went over to the house next door
Her tear drops fell like rain that day
When I told Joni what I had to say

Man - Joni, Joni please don't cry
You'll forget me by and by
You're just fifteen
I'm twenty two
And Joni I just cant wait for you

Man - Soon I left our little home town
Got me a job and tried to settle down
But these words kept haunting my memory
The words that Joni said to me

Woman - Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
I'll grow up some day you'll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with love forever true

Man - I packed my clothes
And I caught a plane
I had to see Joni
I had to explain
How my heart was filled
With her memory
And ask my Joni if she'd marry me

I ran all the way
To the house next door
But things weren't like they were before
My tear drops fell like rain that day
When I heard what Joni had to say

Woman - Jimmy, Jimmy please don't cry
You'll forget me by and by
It's been five years since you've been gone
Jimmy I married your best friend John

  1. Uhm, cay đắng thiệt, ai biểu hồi xưa chê người ta còn nhỏ chi để đến khi muốn quay lại thì muộn rồi.
    Anyway, girls grow fast, don't they :-)

  2. Why doesn't he wait for her just 5 years? He's 27 and she's 20, it's great for both of them, right?
    BTW, we're 25 yrs and we have to wait 2 more years, hehehehe

  3. He didn't wait because at that time she was too young and he wanted to look for someone more mature and perhaps more attractive. Yet, the most beautiful memories usually come from your hometown and childhood. They are where you come from and in which most of your very first feeling taken place.
    Up until now when we grew up, I am pretty sure that most of us still recall some of our boys/girls next door or our beloved classmates. Someone regret the past, someone don't but I know this is the feeling everybody has :-)
