Johnny Boy

(альбом: Affectionately Melanie - 1969)

Johnny boy, my friend
It is the end
Of the summertime
In the wine
In the tree
You and me
You'll recall all the tears
I had fears
You could not stop them from falling
But you did, Johnny boy, my friend
They're falling again!

Johnny boy, my friend
Stop them again
For a lonely girl
In the world
Of the stone buildings
That would turn brown
If they were born
In the town
Where the trees are grown
Johnny boy, I'm alone
Please take me home!

Johnny boy, my friend
Please hold my hand
In the middle of the night
When the world crashes with all its might
Johnny boy, if you had pain
I would do the same
Johnny boy, my friend
You gotta help me again!

Johnny boy, my friend
It is the end, it is the end
Of the summertime
In the wine
In the tree
You and me
You'll recall all the tears
I had fears
You couldn't stop from falling
But you did, Johnny boy, Johnny boy, my friend, my friend
You gotta help me!
