Joni

Joni's like a prizefight
She's a Cassius Clay with green eyes
Trying to resist me
Fighting not to kiss me
And knocking out my lights
She tells me she's an open book
But that's such a joke to me
It's impossible to get her
The pages stick together so nobody can read

Joni is making a fool out of me
I only want to see her smile
If only for a little while
If only for a while

She called me when her daddy died
She told me she was alright
But she was crying in her pancakes
Crying to the fan blades
Crying at the Sky

'Cause she's just aching for a storybook
A truth that she can tame
A box to put a gift in
A world she can exist in that doesn't ever change

Joni is making a fool out of me
I only want to see her smile
If only for a little while
If only for a while
If only for a while
If only for a while
I only want to see her smile

Joni is making a fool out of me
I only want to see her smile
If only for a little while
Joni only for a while
Only for a while
Only for a while
If only for a while
