Don't Cry Joni

作词：     作曲：

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
