Johnny
FIONA Melanie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hello, hello, hello, hello

Oh not again
One thing lead to another way
He said lets just be friends
Right then and there I said to him

Oh thanks so much for nothing
I hope you find that something
Or whoever she is you think you're looking for
Oh don't do me any favors
I guess I'll see you later
Matter fact pull over and let me out this door

Oh johnny took my heart
And left me right here on the sidewalk
on the corner is where he dropped me
I'm saying oh why did we have to part
So now I'm dialing on my cellphone
begging Johnny baby bring me back my heart

Bring me back my heart
Bring me back my heart
Bring me back my heart

Now I ask myself why?
Why did I let him go? now I'm
Walking alone, alone in this cold
Johnny the least you could've done
Was drive me home

Oh thanks so much for nothing
I hope you find that something
Or whoever she is you think you're looking for
Oh don't do me any favors
I guess I'll see you later
Matter fact don't bother knocking on my door

Oh Johnny took my heart
And left me right here on the sidewalk
On the corner is where he dropped me
I'm saying oh why did we have to part
So now I'm dialing on my cellphone
Begging Johnny baby bring me back my heart

Bring me back my heart (my heart)
Bring me back my heart (my heart)
Bring me back my heart (my heart)

Now I'm hiding
This is hard for me to do
See I'm not that chick who sits around
And waits all night for you
But you're worth it
Why you left me I don't know
But I'll walk these streets all night
Until I bring my baby home

Oh I need your loving
You got that special something
Who am I kidding
Please Johnny come back home

Oh Johnny took my heart
And left me right here on the sidewalk
On the corner is where he dropped me
I'm saying oh why did we have to part




So now I'm dialing on my cellphone
Begging Johnny baby bring me back my heart
