Jean

You've been a friend of mine for so-o many year-ears

When I first came to Vancouver with dreams twisting in fear-ear

And oh Jean, friends are like rare stones

Increasing in their value when realized they can't be owned

And I'd write songs only when the pain became too obvious inside

When the screaming in my soul left me no-o place to hide



And whoa Jean, love is like a prayer

So afraid of your own questions as you stand unanswered there-ere-ere

Still you walk the other way rather than risk rejection

Watch the wind blow all hope away as you crawl into

yourself for protection

Still I try to make you see there's so much more I've gotta be

Oh don't turn away, don't lose to the cold,

don't leave me here-ere to die alone



A little of your love couldn't hurt me none

Let it shine on through like rays from the sun

And a little of my love couldn't hurt you none

Let it run beside you, let it flow inside you, let it purify

You break down and I stumble for the right words of consolation

The circle of love spins round and round searchin' for new destinations



Whoa Jean, life is like the sea-ea

Trapped within it's shorelines we're still strugglin' to break free

Still we walk the other way rather than risk rejection

Watch the wind blow all hope away as we crawl into

ourselves for protection

Still I try to make you see, I love you so it frightens me

Whoa, don't turn away, don't lose to the cold, nobody wants to die alone



A little of your love couldn't hurt me none

Let it shine on through like rays from the sun

And a little of my love couldn't hurt you no-one

Let it run beside you, let it flow inside you,
