I told you, Jenny,
If you waited long enough
That love would how it's face,
And life would men son much.
That live would mean to you
Much more than time allows.
All the bad time, Jenny,
They could be erased.
Give love some time, Jenny,
You will find your place.
I spoke these words to you
While we were stil' agrowin',
But now is see your face
And something strange is showin'.
Did I forget to tell you?
Sometimes life is cruel,
That there are men, Jenny,
Who play you for a fool.
I know you're looking
For my words to drey your tears,
But you're a woman now
Beyond your twenty years.
You've gone through changes
That you say you can't forget.
Pick up your head, Jenny.
You've only seen the bad.
There's a perfect love, Jenny,
Waiting to be had.
