[Lee] Hey Joni put it all behind you hey Joni now I've put it all behind me too these times can't add up yr life is such a mess forget the past, and just say yes tell me Joni, am I the one to see you through? In this broken town can you still jack in and know what to do? I remember our youth, our high ideals I remember you were so uptight that time in the trees, we broke that vice we took some steps and now we can't think twice tell me Joni, am I right by you? Tell me how yr gonna lose this hard luck? Hey Joni, when will all these dreams come true? You'd better find a way to climb down off that truck shots ring out from the center of an empty field Joni's in the tall grass she's a beautiful mental jukebox a sailboat explosion a snap of electric whipcrack she's not thinking about the future She's not spinning her wheels she doesn't think at all about the past she thinking long and hard about that high wild sound and wondering will it last? Kick it Hey Joni, put it all behind you There's something turning, Joni, turning right to you my head burns, but I know you'll speak the truth, hey! hey Joni, put it all behind you hey Joni, now I've put it all behind me too forget the future these times are such a mess tune out the past, and just say yes it's 1963 it's 1964 it's 1957 it's 1962 put it all behind you now it's all behind you
