Bon Jovi Lyrics for Song: Janie, Don't Take Your Love To Town
 Lyrics for Album: Jon Bon Jovi: Destination Anywhere [1997]
 
 
 
 5014>Sitting here just watching you sleep
 
 Wish I could slip inside and be
 
 In some Technicolor dream
 
 But the air's too thick for one of us to breathe
 
 I'm not fool enough to think
 
 You couldn't live life without me
 
 
 
 I didn't come this far to throw the towel in
 
 I didn't fight this hard to walk away
 
 If I ain't smart enough to say I'm sorry
 
 It's just because the words got in the way
 
 
 
 I remember how it used to be
 
 I was you and you were me
 
 We were more than just the same
 
 Now these shoes don't fit, my skin's too tight
 
 When you want a kiss, I take a bite
 
 Let your heart call up the cops, read me my rights
 
 
 
 Last night I drank enough to drown
 
 Raise a toast to your good looks and to my health
 
 Look, we both know how much I've let you down
 
 Janie don't you take your love to town
 
 
 
 Janie don't you take your love to town
 
 Janie don't you take your love to town
 
 If I've got to beg, I'll beg, just don't walk away
 
 Janie don't you take your love to town
 
 
 
 You deserve a shooter, a saint
 
 Someone to give it to you straight
 
 To find the soul throught flesh and bone
 
 My life's a treasure, full of sunny weather
 
 But it's left me feeling cold
 
 Now all you want to do is take me home
 
 
 
 I hated you, the night you said you loved me
 
 I hated you, 'cause I couldn't love myself
 
 I'm begging you now, baby please just hold me
 
 I got one foot in, one foot off the ground
 
 
 
 Janie don't you take your love to town
 
 Janie don't you take your love to town
 
 If I've got to beg, I'll beg, just don't walk away
 
 Janie don't you take your love to town
 
 
 
 Sitting here while you're fast asleep
 
 In the bathroom by the sink
 
 Trying to write the right words down
 
 I turn out the lights, close my eyes
 
 There ain't no prayers or kiss goodnight
 
 What I'll forget to say tomorrow, I'll say now
 
 Janie don't you take your love to town
 
 
 
 Janie don't you take your love to town
 
 Janie don't you take your love to town
 
 If I've got to beg, I'll beg, just don't walk away
 
 Janie don't you take your love to town
