Have You Met Miss Jones Lyrics


It happened; I felt it happened
I was awake--I wasn't blind
I didn't think; I felt it happened
Now I believe in matter over mindAnd now you see we mustn't wait
The nearest moment that we marry is too late"Have you met Miss Jones?"
Someone said as we shook hands
She was just Miss Jones to meThen I said, "Miss Jones
You're a girl who understands
I'm a boy who must be free"And all at once I lost my breath
And all at once was scared to death
And all at once I hold the earth and skyNow I met Miss Jones
And well keep on meeting till we die
Miss Jones and I
