Hey Johnny don't tell her

I think I saw her face today

Hey Johnny don't tell her

I thought my knees are made of clay

Don't tell her I've told you

I think I saw her face today

I miss her more and more each day

Meeting a friend

Hoping to hear that she's changed her mind

I try to pretend I left her so far behind

Deep down inside

Holding back on my loathsome lies

Much more than pride

I'm aching for love in her dark blue eyes

Hey Johnny don't tell her

I think I saw her face today

Hey Johnny don't tell her

I thought my knees are made of clay

Don't tell her I've told you

I think I saw her face today

I miss her more and more each day

Whispering her name

Nothing's so sweet when the light's grown dim

I am to blame

Letting her out to him

Maybe I'll try

To show the world that I don't really care

Look in my eyes

There you can see that pain everywhere

Hey Johnny don't tell her

I think I saw her face today

Hey Johnny don't tell her

I thought my knees are made of clay

Don't tell her I've told you

I think I saw her face today

I miss her more and more each day
