Lyrics Johnny Hates Jazz

Johnny Hates Jazz

Nevermore

I used to be strong, strong as a tree

I stood in the sun and I swayed in the breeze

The pride of the forest

Standing so tall

But then came the lightning out of the blue

She struck at my heart and tore me in two

And I fell to the ground

In the gathering storm

Whether I failed you

Whether I failed myself

You know that I need you

More than anyone else

Now will love me Nevermore

Or is there a way to heal the hurting?

If we are still worth fighting for

Tell me now or Nevermore

I live in a world where Winter holds sway

Your trust in me has withered away

Hoping in vain

For the coming of Spring

My heart is hollow

You are a stranger to me

It’s the season of sorrow

And I am a man bereaved

Now will you love me Nevermore

Or is there a way to heal the hurting?

If we are still worth fighting for

Tell me now or Nevermore

As I watch you turn and go

In the gently falling snow

I will dream for a thousand years

Quietly waiting,

Quietly waiting, waiting, waiting

Now will you love me Nevermore

Or is there a way to heal the hurting?

If we are still worth fighting for

Tell me now or Nevermore

Tell me now or Nevermore

Tell me now or Nevermore
