J For Jules -

I was winding my clock

Which was waking us up

In the morning, we were laughing

Away like fools

I was saying my prayers

He was combing his hair

In a country that began with a

'J' for Jules

You know I’ll miss you

And thus it begins

But I’ll release you

And thus it continues —

Someday we’ll be happy again

Oh, the rain never comes

Count my blessings on my thumbs

And the dogs just want to sleep in the

Sun all day

You know I’ll miss you

And thus it begins

But I’ll release you

And thus it continues

Someday we’ll be happy again

There’s no way a country like that could die

Told me that they drift away

But that’s a lie

Well, I just bought a car

But it stays in the yard

And the country that began with a 'J'

Now ends in my heart

You know I’ll miss you

And thus it begins

But I’ll release you

And thus it continues

Someday we’ll be happy again

Someday we’ll be happy again

Someday we’ll be happy again
