Jimmy please
say you'll wait for me
I'll grow up
someday you'll see
Savin' all my kisses
just for you
Signed with love
forever true
Joni was the girl
who lived next door
I've known her I guess
10 years or more
Joni wrote me a note one day
And this is what she had to say
.............
Jimmy please
say you'll wait for me
I'll grow up
someday you'll see
Savin' all my kisses
just for you
Signed with love
forever true
Slowly I read
her note once more
Then I went over
to the house next door
Her teardrops fell
like rain that day
When I told Joni
what I had to say
Joni, Joni,
please don't cry
You'll forget me by and by
You're just fifteen
I'm twenty two
Joni I just can't
wait for you
Soon I left
our little home town
Got me a job
and tried to settle down
But her words kept
haunting my memory
The words that Joni
said to me
............
Jimmy please
say you'll wait for me
I'll grow up
someday you'll see
Savin' all my kisses
just for you
Signed with love
forever true
I packed my clothes
and I caught a plane
I had to see Joni,
I had to explain
How my heart was filled
with her memory
And ask my Joni
if she'd marry me
I ran all the way
to the house next door
But things weren't
like they were before
My teardrops fell
like rain that day
When I heard what Joni
had to say
........
Jimmy Jimmy
please don't cry
You'll forget me by and by
It's been five years
since you've been gone
Jimmy I married
your best friend John.
Thanks for Singing
