Sitting here just watching you sleep
Wish I could slip inside and be
In some Technicolor dream
But the air`s too thick for one of us to breathe
I`m not fool enough to think
You couldn`t live life without me
I didn`t come this far to throw the towel in
I didn`t fight this hard to walk away
If I ain`t smart enough to say I`m sorry
It`s just because the words got in the way
I remember how it used to be
I was you and you were me
We were more than just the same
Now these shoes don`t fit, my skin`s too tight
When you want a kiss, I take a bite
Let your heart call up the cops, read me my rights
Last night I drak enough to drown
Raise a toast to your good looks and to my health
Look, we both know how much I`ve let you down
Janie don`t you take your love to town
Janie don`t you take your love to town
Janie don`t you take your love to town
If I`ve got to beg, I`ll beg, just don`t walk away
Janie don`t you take your love to town
You deserve a shooter, a saint
Someone to give it to you straight
To find the soul throught flesh and bone
My life`s a treasure, full of sunny weather
But it`s left me feeling cold
Now all you want to do is take me home
I hated you, the night you said you loved me
I hated you, `cause I couldn`t love myself
I`m begging you now, baby please just hold me
I got one foot in, one foot off the ground
Janie don`t you take your love to town
Janie don`t you take your love to town
If I`ve got to beg, I`ll beg, just don`t walk away
Janie don`t you take your love to town
Sitting here while you`re fast asleep
In the bathroom by the sink
Trying to write the right words down
I turn out the lights, close my eyes
There ain`t no prayers or kiss goodnight
What I`ll forget to say tomorrow, I`ll say now
Janie don`t you take your love to town
Janie don`t you take your love to town
Janie don`t you take your love to town
If I`ve got to beg, I`ll beg, just don`t walk away
Janie don`t you take your love to town
