The Ballad (Denny & Jean)

Текст песни Todd Rundgren - The Ballad (Denny & Jean)

[Verse 1]
Jean did her best
Denny worked hard
And so together made him a star
And he loved her

Money changed hands
Denny must start
Tallying up things close to his heart
And he loved her so
[Chorus 1]
But we don't always know what to say
When they ask you, what do you say?
No one can tell what's in a heart
People just drift apart

[Verse 2]
Jean lost her head
Denny got mad
"How, Jean," he said, "Can things be so bad?
Right before my eyes"

[Chorus 2]
But we don't always know what to say
When they ask you, what do you say?
Jean told a lie
Denny deceived
Jean packed her bags to leave

[Verse 3]
"Jean, if you must go
Before you do
Tell me you know I did it for you
And I loved you so"
