Timorous Me

Lyrics

Me and Johnny sitting in the green grass I don't remember too much from that far back in the past But man, oh man, was Jonathan a laugh In those days Apparently he was my very best friend We spent warm summer days wishing they would never end But I only know from photographs I look at Every now and again And J-J-Johnny Ooh, all he left us was an apple tree And ooh, where'd he go and ooh, why'd he leave? Ooh, why do I grieve? Now I don't ever see Jonathan no more But my life rolls on just like it did before And I only wonder what it is That I even miss him for Me and Timory holding hands I was shaking hers 'cause she said she was a fan There was an awkward pause and something that should have began Just passed us by But I watched her sing along with every word In the prettiest voice that I never heard And I still see her dancing, wearing my shirt Right there And t-t-timorous me All Timory left me was a memory And ooh, I was blind and ooh, now I find that I can't see Now me and Jodi spent a lot of our time Just sitting in silence, driving late at night Maybe even wondering what was on each others' mind Sometimes But I know she's like me so I let it ride She's dwelling in the quiet space left behind Where only peace can answer why, and you abide The birds must fly
