James

"Too young, too thoughtless," I said to myself With idealistic visions all perched on the shelf And I'm still hoping, waiting for you to come home May your snow capped mountains carry you far May they stand as protectors wherever you are May you stay safe and happy all of your days Oh James Oh James Maybe you're in love or hung up on another And maybe you found a far prettier lover And maybe you'll paint her a picture like you did for me And you color your world with that Neverland smile But it goes dark in pieces every once in a while And on my birthday I told you, "Don't worry, there'll be other days" Oh James Oh James Oh James Oh James Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh And I'll always be happy if you choose to call Or write me a letter saying all that you saw And how things have changed since our days there on Noxontown Pond No, don't be a stranger, now don't go too far And though you love places that have lots of stars Just know in the city, you'll always have a place to stay Oh James Oh James Oh James Oh James Oh James Ooh, ooh, ooh Oh James (ooh, ooh, ooh) Oh James (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh) Oh James Oh James (ooh, ooh, ooh) Oh James (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh) Oh James (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh) Oh James Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh --- James - Maggie Rogers
