Don't Cry Joni (Duet)

In the style of

Conway Twitty

Joni

Lyrics

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
ten 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
