Sitting here just watching you sleep
|
Wish I could slip inside and be in some technicolor dream
|
But the air's too thick for one of us to breathe
|
I'm not fool enough to think you couldn't live life without me
|
|
I didn't come this far to throw the towel in
|
I didn't fight this hard to walk away
|
If I ain't smart enough to say I'm sorry
|
It's just because the words got in the way
|
|
I remember how it used to be
|
I was you and you were me
|
We were more than just the same
|
Now these shoes don't fit, my skin's too tight
|
When you want a kiss, I take a bite
|
Let your heart call up the cops, read me my rights
|
Last night I drank enough to drown
|
Raise a toast to your good looks and to my health
|
Look, we both know how much I've let you down
|
Janie, don't you take your love to town
|
|
Janie, don't you take your love to town
|
Janie, don't you take your love to town
|
If I gotta beg, I'll beg, just don't walk away
|
Janie, don't you take your love to town
|
|
You deserve a shooter, a saint
|
Someone to give it to you straight
|
To find the soul through flesh and bone
|
My life's a treasure, full of sunny weather
|
But it's left me feeling cold
|
Now all you wanna do is take me home
|
I hated you, the night you said you loved me
|
I hated you, 'cause I couldn't love myself
|
I'm begging you now, baby please just hold me
|
I got one foot in, one foot off the ground
|
|
Janie, don't you take your love to town
|
Janie, don't you take your love to town
|
If I gotta beg, I'll beg, just don't walk away
|
Janie, don't you take your love to town
|
Janie, don't you take your love...

|
Sitting here while you're fast asleep
|
In the bathroom by the sink
|
Trying to write the right words down
|
I turn out the lights, close my eyes
|
There ain't no prayers or kiss goodnight
|
What I'll forget to say tomorrow, I'll say now
|
Janie, don't you take your love to town
|
|
Janie, don't you take your love to town
|
Janie, don't you take your love to town
|
If I gotta beg, I'll beg, just don't walk away
|
Janie, don't you take your love to town
|
|
Janie, don't you take your love to town
|
Janie, don't you take your love to town
|
If I gotta beg, I'll beg, just don't walk away
|
Janie, don't you take your love to town
|
|
Janie, don't you take your love to town
|
Janie, don't you take your love to town
|
If I gotta beg, I'll beg, just don't walk away
|
Janie, don't you take your love to town
|
Janie, don't you take your love
|
