Lyrics Jim (1998 - Remaster) - Peggy Lee

Nathaniel and Daniel and Arthur and Glenn
They were so good to me time and again
But there's always a man I just can't quite forget
Not yet, not yet

Jim never ever brings me pretty flowers
Jim never tries to cheer my lonely hours
Don't know why I'm so crazy for Jim
Jim never tells me I'm his heart's desire
I never seem to set his heart afire
Gone are the years I've wasted on him

Sometimes when I get feeling low
I say, let's call it quits
Then I hang on and let him go
Breaking my heart in bits
Some day I know that Jim will up and leave me
But even if he does you can believe me
I'll go on carrying the torch for Jim
A torch for Jim, a torch for Jim
