Jenny Wore Black

Jenny wore black

jenny wore white - WHITE!

and jenny was real

but almost not quite

and jenny was here

she was almost inside

and jenny was real

but jenny was frightened by the way

we looked at her

and jenny could see

she was only a child

jenny concealed all but her smile

and when she smiled we said hey HEY!

you'll never see clear with tears in your face hey!

you'll never see clearly anyway

I said I loved you blindly, and I do

we're only two strangers in ways

we shall say

jenny wore black

jenny wore white, WHITE!

and jenny was real but almost not quite (la la la la la la)

and jenny was here she was almost on time

and jenny was real

but jenny was frightened by the way

we looked at her

and jenny could see within us for a while

jenny revealed all but her smile

and when she smiled we said hey HEY!

you'll never see clear with tears in your face hey!

you'll never see clearly anyway

I said I loved you blindly, and I do

we're only two strangers in ways

we should say

you always caught my eyes where

the dreams peter in

and I can't remember

wherever I've been

there's still holes for my eyes

where the dreams peter through

all I can remember

is when I was with you

we say hey HEY!

you'll never see clear with tears in your face hey!

you'll never see clearly anyway

I said I loved you blindly, and I do

we're only two strangers in ways

we shall say
