Bethany Joy Galeotti - 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 it's

And it's all the same I suppose when everyone's just living in lies

Oh

God I swear sometimes it's 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 and junior

What you've given

How you pray

What this means

What awaits you more than John and 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

Aand 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 and junior

What you've given

How you pray

What this means

What awaits you more than John and 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 and junior

What you've given

How you pray

What this means

What awaits you more than John and junior
