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 drak 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´ve got to 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 throught flesh and bone My life´s a treasure, full of sunny weather But it´s left me feeling cold Now all you want to 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´ve got to beg, I´ll beg, just don´t walk away Janie don´t you take your love to town
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´ve got to beg, I´ll beg, just don´t walk away Janie don´t you take your love to town
