J For Jules

I was winding my clock
Which was waking us up
In the morning, we were laughing
Away like fools
*** verse 2
I was saying my prayers
He was combing his hair
In a country that began with
j for jules
*** chorus
You know Ill miss you
And thus it begins
But Ill release you
And thus it continues
Someday well be happy again
*** verse 3
Oh, the rain never comes
Count my blessings on my thumbs
And the dogs just want to sleep in the
Sun all day
*** chours
You know Ill miss you
And thus it begins
But Ill release you
And thus it continues
Someday well be happy again
*** bridge
Theres no way a country like that could die
Told me that they drift away
But thats a lie
*** verse 4
Well, I just bought a car
But it stays in the yard
And the country that began with
Now ends in my heart
*** chorus
You know Ill miss you
And thus it begins
But Ill release you
And thus it continues
Someday well be happy again
Someday well be happy again.
Someday well be happy again.
(oooo)
(oooo)
