I'll grow up someday you'll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with love forever true
Man - Joni was the girl who lived next door
I've known her I guess 10 years or more
Joni wrote me a note one day
And this is what she had to say
Woman -Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
I'll grow up someday you'll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with love forever true
Man - Slowly I read her note once more
Then I went over to the house next door
Her tear drops fell like rain that day
When I told Joni what I had to say
Man - Joni, Joni please don't cry
You'll forget me by and by
You're just fifteenI'm twenty two
And Joni I just cant wait for you
Man - Soon I left our little home town
Got me a job and tried to settle down
But these words kept haunting my memory
The words that Joni said to me
Woman - Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
I'll grow up some day you'll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with love forever true
Man - I packed my clothes
And I caught a planeI had to see JoniI had to explain
How my heart was filledWith her memory
And ask my Joni if she'd marry me
I ran all the wayTo the house next door
But things weren't like they were before
My tear drops fell like rain that day
When I heard what Joni had to say
Woman - Jimmy, Jimmy please don't cry
You'll forget me by and by
It's been five years since you've been gone
Jimmy I married your best friend John
Age doesnt really matter......so when the time comes that someone offer you a LOVE never ignore it instead you must treasure it,appreciate it .....although im not saying that you must give back the favor that person has offered to you.......its just LOVE sometimes dont last forever.....LOVE sometimes eventually dies too
