Jean by Oliver
Jean, Jean, roses are red All the leaves have gone green And the clouds are so low You can touch them, and so Come out to the meadow, Jean
Jean, Jean, youre young and alive Come out of your half-dreamed dream And run, if you will, to the top of the hill Open your arms, bonnie Jean
Till the sheep in the valley come home my way Till the stars fall around me and find me alone When the sun comes a-singin Ill still be waitin
For Jean, Jean, roses are red And all of the leaves have gone green While the hills are ablaze with the moons yellow haze Come into my arms, bonnie Jean
(Jean, Jean) Jean, youre young and alive!! Come out of your half-dreamed dream And run, if you will to the top of the hill Come into my arms, bonnie Jean
