7. The Ballad of Jayne (4:30)
She was always something special
A diamond shining bright in the rain
Everybody dreams of angels
No one will ever know
How much I loved you so
Now it all seems funny
Kinda like a dream
Things ain't always what they seem
What a shame
What happened to Jayne
You were always on my mind
Childlike summer days in the sun
Slowly wishes turn to sadness
Time don't heal a broken gun
I wish I'd never let you go
Hear me now 'cause I want you to know
That it all seems funny
Kinda like a dream
Things ain't always what they seem
What a shame
What happened to Jayne
Now she's breakin' hearts in heaven
Shining bright in the sky
I still hear her voice in the wind
I still think of you in the night, oh yeah
Well, I guess she'll never know
How much I need her so
Now it all seems funny
Kinda like a dream
Things ain't always what they seem
What a shame
What a shame
What happened to Jayne
Now it all seems funny
Kinda like a dream
Things ain't always what they seem
What a shame
What happened to Jayne
What happened to Jayne
A diamond shining bright in the rain
Everybody dreams of angels
No one will ever know
How much I loved you so
Now it all seems funny
Kinda like a dream
Things ain't always what they seem
What a shame
What happened to Jayne
You were always on my mind
Childlike summer days in the sun
Slowly wishes turn to sadness
Time don't heal a broken gun
I wish I'd never let you go
Hear me now 'cause I want you to know
That it all seems funny
Kinda like a dream
Things ain't always what they seem
What a shame
What happened to Jayne
Now she's breakin' hearts in heaven
Shining bright in the sky
I still hear her voice in the wind
I still think of you in the night, oh yeah
Well, I guess she'll never know
How much I need her so
Now it all seems funny
Kinda like a dream
Things ain't always what they seem
What a shame
What a shame
What happened to Jayne
Now it all seems funny
Kinda like a dream
Things ain't always what they seem
What a shame
What happened to Jayne
What happened to Jayne
