Joanne Songtext

von The Boxmasters

Her name was Joanne and she lived in a meadow by a pond
And she touched me for a moment with a look that spoke to me of her sweet love
Then the woman that she was drove around with desperation
And I saw as she went a most hopeless situation
For Joanne and the man and the time that made them both run

She was only a girl I know that well but still I couldn't see
That the hold that she had was much stronger than the love she felt for me
But staying with her and my little bit of wisdom
Broke down her desires like a light through a prism
Into yellows and blues and a tune that I could not have sung

Though the essence is gone
I have no tears to cry for her
And my only thoughts of her are kind
