Don't Cry Joni - by Conway Twitty

---

Sejak remaja hingga senja

antara lagu Inggeris yang mama

suka ialah lagu ni....

walaupun tak pandai nyanyi...

tapi kalau lagu ni...

mama bolehlah ikut pelan2

(untuk pastikan tiada guruh dan hujan)

mungkin kerana liriknya mudah...

jom...kita layannnn....

Jimmy please say you'll wait for me

I'll grow up someday you'll see

Saving all my kisses just for you

Shine with love

forever true

Joni was the girl who lived next door

I've known her I guess 10 years or more

Joni wrote me a note one day

And this is what she had to say

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

Slowly I read her note once more

Then I went over to the house next door

Her tear drops 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

I'm twenty two

And Joni I just cant wait for you

Soon I left our little home town

Got me a job and tried to settle down

But these words kept haunting my memory

The words that Joni said to me

Jimmy please say you'll wait for me

I'll grow up some day you'll see

Saving all my kisses just for you

Signed with love

forever true

I packed my clothes

And I caught a plane

I had to see Joni

I had to explain

How my heart was filled

With her memory

And ask 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 tear drops 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
