Lyrics

When June died Johnny cried, part of him was gone
His soul was bare, he didn?t care that life was moving on
He held her picture in his hands
He tried and tried and tried to understand
He vowed to see her once again up in heaven walking hand in hand

When June died Johnny cried, he knew she?d always be
In reveries and memories, on this earth she?d never be
He lost the love he?d always known
He saw no need to try and make it on his own
He vowed to see her once again up in heaven walking hand in hand


June and Johnny were together for so long
She wrote the tune, he heard the horns
In that old Ring of Fire song
And now it?s all been said, it?s all been done
Johnny ?hung his head? and cried when June died


When June died Johnny cried, the tumblin? walls fell by his side
The days he knew were all but through
Was praying just to die
When all you have is what you?ve lost
When your will to live this life will be the cost
He vowed to see her once again up in heaven walking hand in hand


June and Johnny were together for so long
She wrote the tune, he heard the horns
In that old Ring of Fire song
And now it?s all been said, it?s all been done
Johnny ?hung his head? and cried when June died


Johnny didn?t need it, you could see it in his eyes
Johnny gave up livin? on the day when June died
