Bethany Joy Lenz - John & Junior lyrics

rate me

You’re everything I thought I wanted as a young girl

Handsome and troubled, worldly - wise and misunderstood

They call you a scholar but they don’t know the difference and

They call you "professor" but they don’t know the subject

And its and its all the same I suppose when everyone’s just living in lies

Oh, God, I swear sometimes its easier to just deny what I know and why I'm waiting...

Then you say

What you want, what you wish, what you crave

You've saved for more than this

John & Junior

What you've giv'n, how you pray, what this means,

What awaits you more than

John & Junior

Go on, accuse me of existing in a castle

Go on and say I’ll be finally woken and broken

When I’m sorely disappointed with how life really is

How the "real" world is...

but don't you see?

You call me a dreamer and I'll call you comfortable

While I'm on my adventure you’ll be safe with your ego and you're

Hiding beneath the skin of an unlearned warrior

Oh, God, he makes being lost looks so good and "so good" is

Better than nothing at all

But worse than the best will fail, and I'm still waiting...but you keep saying my child

What you want, what you wish, what you crave

You've saved for more than this

John & Junior

What you've giv'n, how you pray, what this means,

What awaits you more than

John & Junior

Oh, if you count, it'll go by so slow

But if I try then, maybe,

I could follow what I know and why I'm waiting...

You still say...

What you want, what you wish, what you crave

You've saved for more than this

John & Jr.

What you giv'n, how you pray, what this means, what awaits you

more than John and Jr.
