"Johnny One Time" lyrics

Johnny One Time

So he told you
You're the dream
That he's been searching for
And he told you
That he'd never met
Anyone like you before

And I can hear him
Telling you
Your lips taste just like cherry wine
But did he tell you
That he's known
As Johnny One Time?

So he told you
That he'd never lead
Your heart astray
And he told you
That he'd love you
Forever and a day

And I can hear him
Telling you
He's the shy and bashful kind
But did he tell you
That he's known
As Johnny One Time?

Did he tell you
That your heart will soon become
Another trinket on his bracelets
Of broken hearts?
Did he tell you
That the morning sun will find you
Patching up your shattered pride
And searching for the missing parts?

Did he tell you that the special love
You're saving
Will disappear in shame
And flames like mine?
Did he tell you
That he's known
As Johnny One Time?

Did he tell you
That your heart will soon become
Another trinket on his bracelets
Of broken hearts?
And did he tell you
That the morning sun will find you
Patching up your shattered pride
And searching for the missing parts?

Yes, did he tell you that the special love
You're saving
Will disappear in shame
And flames like mine?
Oh, did he tell you
That he's known
As Johnny One Time?

Did he tell you
That your heart will soon become
Another trinket on his bracelets
Of broken hearts?
And did he tell you
That the morning sun will find you
