I was awake--I wasn't blind
I didn't think; I felt it happened
Now I believe in matter over mind
And now you see we mustn't wait
The nearest moment that we marry is too late
"Have you met Miss Jones?"
Someone said as we shook hands
She was just Miss Jones to me
Then I said, "Miss Jones
You're a girl who understands
I'm a boy who must be free"
And all at once I lost my breath
And all at once was scared to death
And all at once I hold the earth and sky
Now I met Miss Jones
And well keep on meeting till we die
Miss Jones and I
It happened; I felt it happened I was awake--I wasn't blind I didn't think; I felt it happened Now I believe in matter over mind And now you see we mustn't wait The nearest moment that we marry is too late "Have you met Miss Jones?" Someone said as we shook hands She was just Miss Jones to me Then I said, "Miss Jones You're a girl who understands I'm a boy who must be free" And all at once I lost my breath And all at once was scared to death And all at once I hold the earth and sky Now I met Miss Jones And well keep on meeting till we die Miss Jones and I Explain Request ×
