Monday
Jo-anna spends an hour with her magazine
The day is kinda grey and so lazy
She goes aaaahh...
And hey boy
Jo-anna's in the mirror in her dressing gown
Talking to a friend who lives uptown
She goes aaaahh...
My love... and beyond
Oh i wish she was my love
My love... and beyond beyond
Jo-anna says i'm not the only one
Jo-anna says i'll never be the one
But when she smiles there's something in her eyes
That tells me i'm not like the other guys
Jo-anna says - i have to give her time
Jo-anna says - if she's gonna make up her mind
Jo-anna says - i have to wait in the line
Or come back tomorrow
Monday
Sitting in a window in a cheap hotel
Lighting up the room with a candle
I go aaaahh...
And hey boy
She says that i'm a mess any given day
Then laughs as she leaves for a party
I go aaaahh...
My love... and beyond
Oh i wish it was my love
My love... and beyond beyond
Jo-anna says i'm not the only one
Jo-anna says i'll never be the one
But when she smiles there's something in her eyes
That tells me i'm not like the other guys
Jo-anna says - i have to give her time
Jo-anna says - if she's gonna make up her mind
Jo-anna says - i have to stand in the line
Or come back tomorrow
