Jimmy
Toni Watson
Jimmy used to run through the streets at night
To escape from all the fighting
He was always told that he wasn't right
So he just kept on writing
Writing to a dad that he wished he'd had
That he didn't know he needed, he said
"We should run away, but today we'll stay"
And I haven't seen him since that day, now I got
Jimmy on my mind, felt like yesterday
But I don't see him anymore, anymore
Jimmy, he got tired, so he couldn't stay
Now I don't see him anymore, anymore
Nah, nah, no, no
I don't see him anymore
Nah, nah, nah, ah
Jimmy would come over after school sometimes
And we'd dance around the garden
He would never talk, but when he would try
It would never come out right and
One day he had to go when his mum called him home
And he looked at me and smiled and he said
"We should run away, but today we'll stay"
And I haven't seen him since that day, now I got
Jimmy on my mind, felt like yesterday
But I don't see him anymore, anymore
Jimmy, he got tired so he couldn't stay
Now I don't see him anymore, now I got
Jimmy on my mind, feels like yesterday
But I don't see him anymore, anymore
Jimmy, he got tired, but he couldn't stay
Now I don't see him anymore, anymore
Nah, nah, no, no
I don't see him anymore
Nah, nah, nah, ah
And I pictured you back in the day when we were nine
We said that someday we would leave this all behind
And I pictured you back in the day when we were nine
We said that someday we would leave this all behind
Now I got
Jimmy on my mind, felt like yesterday (oh, oh, oh lord)
But I don't see him anymore, anymore
Jimmy, he got tired, so he couldn't stay
Now I don't see him anymore, now I got
Jimmy on my mind, feels like yesterday
But I don't see him anymore, anymore
Jimmy, he got tired, but he couldn't stay
Now I don't see him anymore, anymore
Nah, nah, no, no
I don't see him anymore
Nah, nah, nah, nah, ah
I don't see him anymore
Nah, nah, nah, ah
I don't see him anymore
Nah, nah, nah, mmh
Jimmy used to run through the streets at night
Jimmy pflegte nachts durch die Straßen zu rennen
To escape from all the fighting
Um dem ganzen Streit zu entkommen
He was always told that he wasn't right
Man sagte ihm immer, dass er nicht richtig sei
So he just kept on writing
Also schrieb er einfach weiter
Writing to a dad that he wished he'd had
Schrieb an einen Vater, den er sich gewünscht hätte
That he didn't know he needed, he said
Den er nicht wusste, dass er ihn brauchte, er sagte
"We should run away, but today we'll stay"
"Wir sollten weglaufen, aber heute bleiben wir"
And I haven't seen him since that day, now I got
Und ich habe ihn seit diesem Tag nicht mehr gesehen, jetzt habe ich
Jimmy on my mind, felt like yesterday
Jimmy im Kopf, fühlte sich an wie gestern
But I don't see him anymore, anymore
Aber ich sehe ihn nicht mehr, nicht mehr
Jimmy, he got tired, so he couldn't stay
Jimmy, er wurde müde, also konnte er nicht bleiben
Now I don't see him anymore, anymore
Jetzt sehe ich ihn nicht mehr, nicht mehr
Nah, nah, no, no
Nah, nah, nein, nein
I don't see him anymore
Ich sehe ihn nicht mehr
Nah, nah, nah, ah
Nah, nah, nah, ah
Jimmy would come over after school sometimes
Jimmy kam manchmal nach der Schule vorbei
And we'd dance around the garden
Und wir tanzten im Garten herum
He would never talk, but when he would try
Er sprach nie, aber wenn er es versuchte
It would never come out right and
Kam es nie richtig raus und
One day he had to go when his mum called him home
Eines Tages musste er gehen, als seine Mutter ihn nach Hause rief
And he looked at me and smiled and he said
Und er sah mich an und lächelte und sagte
"We should run away, but today we'll stay"
"Wir sollten weglaufen, aber heute bleiben wir"
And I haven't seen him since that day, now I got
Und ich habe ihn seit diesem Tag nicht mehr gesehen, jetzt habe ich
Jimmy on my mind, felt like yesterday
Jimmy im Kopf, fühlte sich an wie gestern
But I don't see him anymore, anymore
Aber ich sehe ihn nicht mehr, nicht mehr
Jimmy, he got tired so he couldn't stay
Jimmy, er wurde müde, also konnte er nicht bleiben
Now I don't see him anymore, now I got
Jetzt sehe ich ihn nicht mehr, jetzt habe ich
Jimmy on my mind, feels like yesterday
Jimmy im Kopf, fühlt sich an wie gestern
But I don't see him anymore, anymore
Aber ich sehe ihn nicht mehr, nicht mehr
Jimmy, he got tired, but he couldn't stay
Jimmy, er wurde müde, aber er konnte nicht bleiben
Now I don't see him anymore, anymore
Jetzt sehe ich ihn nicht mehr, nicht mehr
Nah, nah, no, no
Nah, nah, nein, nein
I don't see him anymore
Ich sehe ihn nicht mehr
Nah, nah, nah, ah
Nah, nah, nah, ah
And I pictured you back in the day when we were nine
Und ich stellte mir dich vor, zurück in den Tagen, als wir neun waren
We said that someday we would leave this all behind
Wir sagten, dass wir eines Tages all das hinter uns lassen würden
And I pictured you back in the day when we were nine
Und ich stellte mir dich vor, zurück in den Tagen, als wir neun waren
We said that someday we would leave this all behind
Wir sagten, dass wir eines Tages all das hinter uns lassen würden
Now I got
Jetzt habe ich
