Timorous Me Lyrics

Me and Johnny sittin' in the green grass --
I don't remember too much from that far back in the past,
But man, oh man, was Jonathan a laugh in those days.
Apparently he was my very best friend --
We spent warm summer days wishin' they would never end --
But I only know from photographs I look at every now and again.

And J-J-Johnny --
Ooh, ooh, all he left us was an apple tree,
And ooh, where'd he go,
And ooh, why'd he leave,
And ooh, why do I grieve?

Now I don't ever see Jonathan no more,
But my life rolls on just like it did before,
And I only wonder what it is that I even miss him for.

Me and Timory holdin' hands --
I was shakin' hers, 'coz she said she was a fan,
There was an awkward pause,
And something that should've began
just passed us by.Ted Leo & The Pharmacists - Timorous Me - http://motolyrics.com/ted-leo-and-the-pharmacists/timorous-me-lyrics.html
But I watched her sing along with every word,
In the prettiest voice that I never heard,
And I still see her dancin',
Wearin' my shirt: right there.

And T-T-Timorous me --
All Timory left me was a memory.
And ooh, I was blind,
And ooh, now I find that I can't see.

Now me and Jodi spend a lot of our time
just sittin' in silence,
Drivin' late at night,
And maybe even wonderin' what's
on each other's mind this time.

But I know she's like me,
So I let it ride --
She's dwellin' in that quiet space left behind,
Where only peace can answer why,
And you abide that birds must fly.
