JEAN

Jean, Jean, roses are red; all of the leaves have gone green;
And the clouds are so low, you can touch them and so,      
Come out to the meadow, Jean.

Jean, Jean, you’re young and alive, come out of your half-dreamed dream,
And run if you will to the top of the hill;
Open your arms, bonnie Jean.

Till the sheep in the valley come home my way,
Till the stars fall around me and find me alone,
When the sun comes a-singin’, I’ll still be waitin’.

Jean, Jean, the roses are red, and all of the leaves have gone green;    
While the hills are ablaze with the moon’s yellow haze,
Come into my arms, bonnie Jean.

Jean, Jean, you’re young and alive, come out of your half-dreamed dream,
And run if you will to the top of the hill; 
Come into my arms, bonnie Jean.  
La la-la, la la-la, la la-la, la la-la
