"Jenny" lyrics

"Jenny"

Jenny was my best friend when we were five
She would throw me like a feather
She would take me out all night

She would sing me songs while we grew up fast
In a little town, always thought that it would last
Forever

And every boy fell in love with her
With eyes of green, like a fire she would burn, burn, burn

You could see that light from miles away
Like a brand-new star, like a brand-new day

And I told you once
And I told you twice
Times like these are the best days of our lives
So, hold on tight, when it's time to go
All we get is "nothing lasts forever, forever, forever"
Baby, now we're gone

Jenny took a job on the aeroplanes
Always dreaming, always changing lanes

She fell in love and she married fast
Tried to settle down, always thought that it would last
Forever

She stayed a while and found her feet
And we drank it off and things began to turn, turn, turn

Friday morning came around
With a winning smile said, "I guess I'll see you 'round"
'Cause you can't keep a good man down

And I told you once
And I told you twice
Times like these are the best days of our lives
So, hold on tight, when it's time to go
All we get is "nothing lasts forever, forever, forever"
Baby, now we're gone

Jenny, dear, I wonder
Did you ever get my letter?
It ended on a bended knee
I was trying to make forever

I could've spent my life with her
But she was born not to please me
Something's just ain't meant to be
And nothing good comes easy

Jenny was my best friend when we where five
Drank our first beer, we were best of alibis

And any time she was back in town
She was at my door trying to pull me out
She'd smile and wink
After 20 drinks
And yell, "You can't keep a good man down!"

And I told you once
And I told you twice
Times like these are the best days of our lives
So, hold on tight, when it's time to go
All we get is "nothing lasts forever, forever, forever, forever"

And I told you once
And I told you twice
Times like these are the best days of our lives
So, hold on tight, when it's time to go
All we get is "nothing lasts forever, forever, forever"
Baby, now we're gone

Baby, now we're gone
Baby, now we're gone
Baby, now we're gone

Jenny was my best friend when we were five
Jenny was my best friend when we were five
Jenny was my best friend when we were five
Jenny was my best friend when we were five

Jenny was my best friend when we were five
Jenny was my best friend when we were five
Jenny was my best friend when we were five
Jenny was my best friend and she's the one
