Lyrics
Johnny Has Never Been...
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.
Once there was a poor boy in every song
Once there was a poor boy in every song
Of love
Johnny wants to be in a song about pure love
But Johnny has never been in love
Johnny wants to know everything about pure love
But Johnny has never been in love
Johnny wants to be a character
In a movie about pure love
But Johnny has never been his own character
In his own loveless road
He needs to feel pure, he needs to be sure
That someone would like to sing with him
A song about, a song about, a song about pure love
Johnny wants to say a word about pure love
But Johnny has never been in love
Johnny wants to cry for losing a new pure love
But Johnny has never been in love
Johnny wants to write an immortal song about pure love
But Johnny has never been quite sure if it's possible to write even being alone
He needs to feel pure, he needs to be sure
That someone would like to sing with him
A song about, a song about, a song about pure love
Johnny, you are not alone
Well, in fact you are
But there are other people in this world
That are as lonely as you
So let's celebrate, Johnny!
Let's celebrate loneliness
Let's celebrate Johnny!
Let's celebrate people!
So let's celebrate, Johnny!
Let's celebrate loneliness
Let's celebrate Johnny!
Let's celebrate people!
Cause they need to be celebrated
Cause they need to feel tolerated
In every single way
Until now, Johnny hasn't found anyone
But every day in his head
He has a warmful company
Of a choir of pretty married people who sings
To be alive is to be in love
To be in love is not to be Johnny
To be alive is to be in love
So Johnny has never been
To be alive is to be in love
To be in love is not to be Johnny
To be alive is to be in love
So Johnny has never been
Alive
