John I love you, I'm ever so fond of you
Will you wait for me till I am heavenly?
Oh there's much more to do
But I love you
Oh you're tender, you're name's a whisper

I let tears fall like rain
Apple sized they were over her
And through all of those times when you could have died
This is what you find

There's life outside your mother's garden
There's life beyond your wildest dreams
There hasn't been any explosion
We're not spinning like Dorothy

If you look now then you will see
Why don't be afraid to cry
This time don't let yourself die
John

I'll pick up those dancing shoes
Kick off those wedding blues
These are the ways you can choose

Child you're tender you're name's a whisper

There's life outside your mother's garden
There's life beyond your wildest dreams
There hasn't been any explosion
We're not spinning like Dorothy

If you look now then you will see
Why don't be afraid to cry
This time don't let yourself die
John

I'll pick up those dancing shoes
Kick off those wedding blues
These are the ways you can choose

Child I love you I'm ever so fond of you
