Johnsons Love Lyrics |
|
(Dwight Yoakam)
She had left him lost and broken like no other had before
And now his heart was just a token of the pain it had endured
And his memories were clouded with all the hurtful things shed said
Yes, for all intent and purpose he might just as well been dead
Chorus:
And some people claim they still hear him call he name
Hey, hey, Maureen, swear they hear it just that plain
Deep in the night and sometimes right at dawn
See, his body died some years ago
but around here Mr. Johnsons love lives on
He seemed far away and distant with that cold and silent stare
Never moving, never speaking and just barely breathing air
No one really knew her reason and who can judge her right or wrong
The only true and solemn fact is, the main wed known was all but gone
Chorus:
And some people claim they still hear him call he name
Hey, hey, Maureen, swear they hear it just that plain
Deep in the night and sometimes right at dawn
See, his body died some years ago
but around here Mr. Johnsons love lives on
Sissy Thompson said shed seen him late that night on Shelby Road
About a mile from there they found him it seems hed died out in the snow
I heard the preacher at the service say fro love hes finally free
but I say love, it knows no season it haunts the soul eternally
Chorus:
And some people claim they still hear him call he name
Hey, hey, Maureen, swear they hear it just that plain
Deep in the night and sometimes right at dawn
Yeah, his body died some years ago
but around here Mr. Johnsons love lives on
Yes, his body died some years ago
but around here Mr. Johnsons love lives on
