Lyrics Neil Sedaka – Jeannine
Text:
Don’t know exactly where or when the rumour started
But like a fire it spread and left you broken hearted.
Oh Jeannine, poor Jeannine, you’re topic number one,
A target for their fun,
There was a time they found your tomboy ways amusing,
But that was then and now the laughter is accusing.
Though it’s no secret that you’ve never loved a man,
They don’t think you can,
Come on girl, I understand,
I’ll show you the way Jeannine,
Let me light up your day Jeannine,
Before you believe the things that they say, Jeannine.
Come let me shield you from the people who suspect you,
Come let me hold you, let me love you and protect you.
Oh Jeannine, my Jeannine, let your heart run free,
Don’t be afraid of me,
Taste how sweet the world can be.
I’ll show you the way Jeannine,
Let me show you the way Jeannine,
Before you believe the things that they say, Jeannine.
Oh Jeannine, my Jeannine, let your heart run free,
Don’t be afraid of me,
Taste how sweet the world can be.
I’ll show you the way Jeannine,
Let me light up your day Jeannine,
Before you believe the things that they say, Jeannine.
I’ll show you the way Jeannine,
Let me light up your day Jeannine,
Let me show, let me show you the way Jeannine.
