Jean
David Hasselhoff Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All 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
Open your arms, bonnie jean
Till the sheep in the valley come home I don't wait
Till the stars fall around me and find me alone
When the sun comes a-singin'
I'll still be waiting
Jean, jean, roses are red
And all of the leaves have gone green
And the clouds are so low
You can touch them, and so
Come into my arms, bonnie jean
All the hills are ablaze with the moon's yellow haze
Come into my arms, bonnie jean
Jean, you're young and alive!!

The singer invites Jean to join him out in the meadow to bask in this idyllic atmosphere.

The chorus speaks of the singer's unwavering patience, waiting for Jean to come into his arms.
