Joni was the girl who lived next door琼妮是位住在隔壁的女孩
I've known her I guess ten year or more我认识她大概有十多年了
Joni wrote me a note one day有一天，琼妮写了张字条给我
And this is what she had to say这就是她想说的
Jimmy please say you'll wait for me吉米，请告诉我你会等我
I'll grow up someday you'll see我总有一天会长大
Saving all my kisses just for you把我所有的吻都留给你
Signed with love forever true永远和爱一起闪耀
Slowly I read her note once more我再次慢慢的读著她的字条
Then I went over to the house next door然后，我走到隔壁去
Her tear drops fell like rain that day那一天她的泪水像雨般滴落
When I told Joni what I had to say当我告诉琼妮我心底的话
Joni , Joni please don't cry琼妮 ! 琼妮 ，不要哭
You'll forget me by and by妳会慢慢的忘了我
You're just fifteen and I'm twenty-two妳才十五岁，而我已二十二岁
And Joni I just can't wait for you琼妮，我无法等妳
Soon I left our little hometown我很快离开了家乡
Got me a job and try to settle down找到一份工作，试著安定下来
But these words kept haunting my memory但那些话一直在我记忆里
The words that Joni said to me那些琼妮告诉我的话
Jimmy please say you'll wait for me吉米，请告诉我你会等我
I'll grow up someday you'll see我总有一天会长大
Saving all my kisses just for you把我所有的吻都留给你
Signed with love forever true永远和爱一起闪耀
I packed my clothes and I caught a plane我收拾了衣物，订了班机
I had to see Joni , I had to explain我得见见琼妮，好好解释
How my heart was filled with her memory 我的心里萦绕著她的回忆
And ask my Joni if she marry me如果琼妮愿意嫁给我
I ran all the way to the house next door 我跑过马路到隔壁房子去
But things weren't like they were before影物如昨
My tear drops fell like rain that day那一天我的眼泪像雨水般滴落
When I heard what Joni had to say当我听见琼妮所说的
Jimmy , Jimmy please don't cry吉米，吉米，请不要哭
You'll forget me by and by你会慢慢地忘了我
It's been five years since you've been gone自从你离开以后，已经过了五年
Jimmy , I married your best friend , John吉米，我已经嫁给你最要好的朋友- 约翰
