Joey will come, to see your flowers Joey will come, to while away your hours She will tell you you're not so good for her She wouldn't be there if it could be that you were Joey has loved, never shown her tears So she may laugh in the autumn of your years When you're with her you'll wonder if it's true All that they said of a world without you Where she may come from, where she may go Who she may run from, no one will know Why she was late may trouble you some Still you wait for Joey to come Joey will come when once more it looks like snow Joey will come when it's really time to go And you may smile when you find that you've been wrong You thought you found her but she knew you all along But Joey will come to say hello, Joey
