Why am I sitting alone tonight,
|
when I could be out where the lights are bright?
|
It's all because of Jim, It's all because of Jim.
|
Why am i wasting these precios years?
|
Why am I crying these bitter tears?
|
It's all because of Jim, It's all because of Jim.
|
|
Jim doesn't ever bring me pretty flowers,
|
Jim never tries to cheer my lonely hours,
|
Don't know why I'm so crazy for Jim.
|
Jim never tells me I'm his hearts desire.
|
I never seem to set his love afire
|
Gone are the years I've wasted on him.
|
Sometimes when I get feeling low,
|
I say "Let's call it quits."
|
Then I hang on and let him go
|
Breaking my heart in bits.
|
Some day I know tht Jim will up and leave me,
|
But even if he does you can believe me,
|
I'll go on carrying the torch for Jim.
