Nineteen63

It was January, 1963
When Johnny came home with a gift for me He said, «I bought it for you because I love you
And I bought it for you 'cause it’s your birthday too.»
He was so very nice
He was so very kind
To think of me at this point in time
I used to think of him
He used to think of me He told me to close my eyes
My gift would be a great surprise
I saw tears were in his eyes
He never meant to hurt me Oh, God, Johnny, don’t point that gun at me There’s so many ways our lives have changed
But please, I beg, don’t do this to me Johnny, don’t point that gun at me Can I save my life for any price?
For God’s sake won’t you listen to me?
And though he was ashamed that he had took a life
Johnny came home with another wife
And he often remembered how it used to be Before that special occasion — 1963
There’s too many ways that you can kill someone
Like in a love affair when the love has gone
He used to think of her
She used to think of him
He told me to close my eyes
My gift would be a great surprise
I saw tears were in his eyes
He never meant to hurt me Oh, God, Johnny, don’t point that gun at me There’s so many ways our lives have changed
But please, I beg, don’t do this to me Johnny, you keep on using me Can I change my life for any price?
Oh Johnny, won’t you listen to me?
He told me to close my eyes
My gift would be a great surprise
I saw hatred in his eyes
But he never meant to hurt me Oh, God, Johnny, don’t point that gun at me There’s so many ways our lives have changed
But please, I beg, don’t do this to me Johnny, you keep on using me Can I change my life for any price?
Oh Johnny, won’t you listen to me?
I just want you to me mine
I don’t want this world to shine
I don’t want this bridge to burn
Oh Johnny, do you miss me?
I just want to feel free
I will always feel free
I will always feel free
I will always feel free
I will always feel free
