Lyrics Don't Cry Joni - Conway Twitty feat. Joni Twitty

- Woman -
Jimmy please say you′ll wait for me
I'll grow up someday you′ll see
Savin' all my kisses just for you
Signed with love, forever true
- Man -
Joni was the girl who lived next door
I've known her i guess, ten years or more
Joni wrote me a note one day,
And this is what she had to say
- Woman -
Jimmy please say you′ll wait for me
I′ll grow up someday you'll see
Savin′ all my kisses just for you
Signed with love, forever true
- Man -
Slowly i read her note once more
Then I went over to the house next door
Her teardrops fell like rain that day
When I told Joni what I had to say...
Joni, Joni, please don't cry
You′ll forget by and by
You're just 15, I′m 22
And Joni I just can't wait for you
Soon I left our little hometown
Got me a job and try to settle down
But these words kept haunting my memory,
The words that Joni said to me...
- Woman -
Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
I′ll grow up someday you′ll see
Savin' all my kisses just for you
Signed with love, forever true
- Man -
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 teardrops fell like rain that day
When I heard what Joni had to say
- Woman -
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...
