Don't Cry Joni

[00:12.10] Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
[00:17.52] I'll grow up someday you'll see
[00:22.28] Saving all my kisses just for you
[00:28.06] Signed with love
[00:29.82] Forever true
[00:36.21] Joni was the girl who lived next door
[00:41.52] I've known her I guess ten years or more
[00:46.39] Joni wrote me a note one day
[00:51.58] And this is what she had to say
[00:59.86] Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
[01:06.44] I'll grow up someday you'll see
[01:10.91] Saving all my kisses just for you
[01:16.56] Signed with love
[01:18.61] Forever true
[01:25.39] Slowly I read her note once more
[01:29.96] Then I went over to the house next door
[01:34.48] Her tear drops fell like rain that day
[01:40.24] When I told Joni what I had to say
[01:49.69] Joni, Joni please don't cry
[01:55.02] You'll forget me by and by
[01:59.95] You're just 15
[02:02.06] I'm 22
[02:05.32] And Joni I just cant wait for you
[02:14.85] Soon I left our little home town
[02:20.25] Got me a job and tried to settle down
[02:24.23] But these words
[02:25.38] Kept haunting my memory
[02:29.44] The words that Joni said to me
[02:38.29] Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
[02:43.62] I'll grow up some day you'll see
[02:48.04] Saving all my kisses just for you
[02:54.39] Signed with love
[02:56.06] Forever true
[03:02.83] I packed my clothes
[03:04.63] And I caught a plane
[03:08.09] I had to see Joni
[03:09.85] I had to explain
[03:12.45] How my heart was filled
[03:14.77] With her memory
[03:17.62] And ask my Joni if she'd marry me
[03:26.82] I ran all the way
[03:29.21] To the house next door
[03:31.84] But things weren't like they were before
[03:36.26] My tear drops fell like rain that day
[03:41.93] When I heard what Joni had to say
[03:51.02] Jimmy, Jimmy please don't cry
[03:56.53] You'll forget me by and by
[04:01.52] It's been five years since you've been gone
[04:07.47] Jimmy I married your best friend John
[04:17.83]
