Mary Fahl Johnny And June Lyrics

The kind of love that burns,
Turns your soul around.
Will push you through the ring of fire,
To face your demons down.

A love that you let cut you,
Just to hold the rose in bloom.
Like the one I have for you dear,
Like Johnny loved June.

I've seen this love before,
Like a diamond hard and pure,
Like a song from my childhood,
My father's love endured.

And when his aching body failed him,
He would not leave this world to soon,
For my father loved my mother,
Like Johnny loved June.

John, loved June.
Like John loved June.

Oh, youth and beauty, And dreams of long ago,
You fell for an illusion,
She had you from hello.

And still you overlooked the sins,
That brought your love to ruin,
And I believe you loved her,
Like Johnny loved June.

And though my form and face,
Are things that you admire,
There is no place inside your heart,
Only your desire.

So my broken heart will lay no blame,
But I must be leaving soon,
To find a man who'll love me,
Like Johnny loved June.

I'll find a man who'll love me,
like Johnny loved June.

John loved June.
Like John loved June.
