Jimmy was a shadow the youngest of three boys
|
How he longed to feel the light
|
Jimmy¡¯s older brothers sure could make some noise
|
So he became the quiet type
|
But deep inside he had some powerful dreams
|
He¡¯d think about them then he¡¯d smile
|
|
Chorus:
|
And he was gone, gone, to somewhere far beyond
|
Where he was strong, strong, shining in the sun
|
They say that someday the meekest heart will sing
|
There was Jimmy waiting in the wings
|
|
Susie was a waitress morning noon and night
|
But she never did complain
|
Jimmy¡¯d stopped for lunch there at least a thousand times
|
But one Monday something changed
|
She leaned across him with some chocolate pie
|
Then he looked into her eyes
|
|
Chorus:
|
|
And he was gone, gone, to somewhere far beyond
|
His heart beat strong strong he knew she was the one
|
They say that someday the meekest heart will sing
|
Love found Jimmy waiting in the wings
|
|
Bridge:
|
|
And when he held her for the very first time
|
He found the one thing he¡¯d been missing all his life
|
|
|
|
Chorus:
|
|
And they were gone, gone, to somewhere far beyond
|
Their love was strong strong two hearts beat as one
|
He stood beside her and she put on his ring
|
And when she smiled how his heart did sing
|
|
Tag:
|
They say that someday the meekest heart will sing
|
So remember if you¡¯re waiting in the wings
|
