Jane
Goldfinger Doe & B.M.S. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We can share what nobody else knows
We can be close strangers
Careless soul mates
Because we’re John and Jane Doe
We can be hip, smart, brilliantly fun
Cynical, kind,
But we must fear love
Be close strangers
Careless soulmates
Yes we can play love
But we must fear love, (love), love (love), love
Don’t wanna know your name
You’re just another girl (boy)
I will convince myself
You’re just a (clever guy) pretty face
That we know nothing Jane (John) Doe
But to forget and move on
Because we’re John and Jane Doe
We can share what nobody else knows
We can be close strangers
Careless soul mates
Because we’re John and Jane Doe
We can free fall, dive from a sixty feet height
sleep in the wild,
But we must fear love
Yeah we must fear love, (love), love (love), love
Be close strangers
Careless soulmates
Yes we can play love
But we must fear love, (love), love (love), love
Don’t wanna know your name
You’re just another girl (boy)
I will convince myself
You’re just a (clever guy) pretty face
That we know nothing Jane (John) Doe
But to forget and move on
We must fear love, (love), love (love), love
We must fear love, (love), love (love), love
We must fear love, (love), love (love), love
We must fear love, (love), love (love), love
We must fear love, (love), love (love), love
We must fear love, (love), love (love), love
We must fear love, (love), love (love), love
We must fear love, (love), love (love), love
We must fear love, (love), love (love), love
We must fear love, (love), love (love), love
We must fear love, (love), love (love), love
We must fear love, (love), love (love), love
We must fear love, (love), love (love), love
We must fear love, (love), love (love), love
We must fear love, (love), love (love), love
