Jo-Anna Says

monday
jo-anna spends an hour with her magazine
the day is kinda grey and so lazy
she goes aaaahh…
and hey boy
jo-anna’s in the mirror in her dressing gown
talking to a friend who lives uptown
she goes aaaahh…

my love… and beyond
oh i wish she was my love
my love… and beyond beyond

jo-anna says i’m not the only one
jo-anna says i’ll never be the one
but when she smiles there’s something in her eyes
that tells me i’m not like the other guys
jo-anna says – i have to give her time
jo-anna says – if she’s gonna make up her mind
jo-anna says – i have to wait in the line
or come back tomorrow

monday
sitting in a window in a cheap hotel
lighting up the room with a candle
i go aaaahh…
and hey boy
she says that i’m a mess any given day
then laughs as she leaves for a party
i go aaaahh…

my love… and beyond
oh i wish it was my love
my love… and beyond beyond

jo-anna says i’m not the only one
jo-anna says i’ll never be the one
but when she smiles there’s something in her eyes
that tells me i’m not like the other guys
jo-anna says – i have to give her time
jo-anna says – if she’s gonna make up her mind
jo-anna says – i have to stand in the line
or come back tomorrow
