(R.J. Johnson/Owens)
I'd love to say I love you
but I can't go on like this
I can't see this world through your eyes

it's killing me
to meet like this the third time
is nothing like the first time
but I won't tell our story all at once
and wreck the big surprise
I've known you since we were five
and again at seventeen
all that time you gave me confidence
while you had none
your daddy took it from you
but I helped your wishes come true
now I'm here with wishes all my own
Jenny please come home
come on Jenny come on
do you think that you could be wrong
it isn't like I ever had a choice
but I don't mind
come on Jenny come on Jenny
come one Jenny tonight
your whole world is shades of gray while mine
while mine is black and white
Well I'm a simple man
but I ain't as dumb as you think
When I tell you I love you
don't say that it's impossible
impossible impossible
come on Jenny come on
do you think that you could be wrong
it isn't like I ever had a choice
but I don't mind
come on Jenny come on Jenny
come one Jenny tonight
your whole world is shades of gray while mine
while mine is black and white
