Richard Thompson
Jennie (Live)
[Verse 1]
Oh, trouble becomes you, it cuts you down to my size
And you never were less than perfect in my eyes
But I lost my way somehow
For three hard winters I held it in—till now
[Refrain]
Now I can't help it
Oh Jennie, my love
Oh Jennie, my love
[Verse 2]
Now you pin up your hair like you did when first we met
Oh, how many days of his life can a man regret?
And if my tears were a train
Then I'd cry all the way back into your arms again
[Refrain]
Now I can't help it
Oh Jennie, my love
Oh Jennie, my love
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
Now I count thе times we had and the timеs we missed
Now I stand here love unsworn and lips unkissed
And you don't know how hard I tried
To kill the vision of you as another man's bride
[Refrain]
Now I can't help it
Oh Jennie, my love
Oh Jennie, my love
Oh Jennie, my love
Oh Jennie, my love
