Elegy for Jane - Theodore Roethke lyrics
Miscellaneous
A Prayer For Jane
A PRAYER FOR JANE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Written: Steve Kipner, John L Parker
VERSE 1:
With her headphones on she disappears
Into a world of no restrictions
Alone in her room in her parent's house
Waiting for love to recognise her
Her mother is downstairs miles away
Pouring a drink to tolerate
She thinks to herself my baby's just like me
Please don't let her make the same mistakes
CHORUS:
If you love me say a prayer for Jane
She's a spirit of a young girl's heart
Light a candle in the pouring rain
When you feel the pain
Say a prayer for Jane
VERSE 2:
2 am as pre-arranged
She sneaks down the hall and out the door
Running away in her boyfriend's car
The moment they've been waiting for
Free as the wind blowing in her hair
Driving as fast as the love could go
Out of control on a dead man's curve
The phone rings and her mother answers
NO NO NO NO NOT MY BABY NO
CHORUS:
BRIDGE:
She left a message on the bathroom mirror
Lipstick on the mirror said
"Mummy I love you but ...
You've just got to let me go
Can we talk about it tomorrow"
CHORUS: (not last line) x 2
Remember Jane
