Lyrics

Johnny, by Mike Boren

The truth is closer when your bottom down
And your confidence is cleaned
And your body is sorrow
Nothing much left to leave

Nothing left for you Johnny
Nothing left to receive
Nothing left for you Johnny
This is not a dream

If you can still feel the fire
Or comfort in your eyes
Clear as the new sky
Dark as heaven at night

To mother goes grace, To father goes pride
And the Devil is on his knees
No burden to bare if there?s nothing left to leave
Don?t ask for a new day if the old one isn?t done
Don?t fight a new war if the old one isn?t done
