Don't cry, JoniConway Twitty & Joni Lee

*Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
I'll grow up someday you'll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with love forever true"

Joni was the girl who lived next door
I've known her I guess ten years or more
Joni wrote me a note one day
And this is what she had to say (repeat*)

Slowly I read her note once more
Then I went over to the house next door
Her teardrops fell like rain that day
When I told Joni what I had to say

"Joni, Joni please don't cry
You'll forget me by and by
You're just fifteen and I'm twenty-two
And Joni I just can't wait for you"

Soon I left our little hometown
Got me a job and tried to settle down
But these words kept haunting my memory
The words that Joni said to me (repeat*)

I packed my clothes and I caught the plane
I had to see Joni, I had to explain
How my heart was filled with her memory
And that's my Joni if she'd marry me

I ran all the way to the house next door
But things weren't like they were before
My teardrops fell like rain that day
When I heard what Joni had to say

"Jimmy, Jimmy please don't cry
You'll forget me by and by
It's been five years since you've been gone
Jimmy, I married your best friend John......"

琼妮，别哭康威崔提 & 琼妮李

吉米，请告诉我你会等我
我总有一天会长大
把我全部的吻都留给你
并且签上"永远的挚爱"

琼妮是位住在隔壁的女孩
我认识她大概有十多年了
有一天，琼妮写了张纸条给我
这就是她想说的……

我再次慢慢的读着她的纸条
然后，我走到隔壁去
那一天，她泪如雨下
当我告诉琼妮我心底的话

" 琼妮！琼妮，不要哭
慢慢的，你会把我忘掉
你才十五岁，而我已二十二岁
琼妮，我无法等你 "

我很快离开了我们住的小镇
找到一份工作，试着安定下来
但那些话语在我记忆里挥之不去
那些琼妮告诉我的话

我收拾了衣物，搭上班机
我得去见琼妮，向她解释
我的心里萦绕着关于她的回忆……
如果琼妮能嫁给我，那再好不过了

我飞奔到隔壁去
但景物已全非
那一天我的泪水像雨水般滴落
当我听到琼妮所说的……

" 吉米！吉米，不要哭
你会慢慢的把我忘掉
你离去以后，已经过了五年
吉米，我已经嫁给你最好的朋友－－约翰 "
