john's jealousy

hanging out here since the beginning of time
wondering who cares about all these rhymes

maybe we are all just jealous guys
waiting for an eiffel tower
remember what the joker said to the thief
where did here go anyway?

she never really understood the meanings of the songs
but still wanted him to be the love of her life
without the understanding she could not see what went wrong
maybe that's why truth cuts like a knife

propinquity is comforting
but that is not enough
when you can't find the door
the truth is rough

still and always wondering who cares about the rhymes
he still loved her for she was easy to live with most of the time

there was so much more once upon an ever
then somehow it fell into whatever
