Lyrics
Jim
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Jim doesn't ever bring me pretty flowers
Jim never tries to cheer my lonely hours
Don't know why I'm so crazy for Jim
Jim never tells me I'm his heart's desire
I never seem to set his love afire
Gone are the years I've wasted on him
Sometimes when I get feelin' low
I say let's call it quits
Then I hang on and let him go Breakin' my heart in bits
Someday I know that Jim will up and leave me
But even if he does you can believe me
I'll go on carrying the torch for Jim
I'll go on lovin' my Jim
