Sweet Jane lyrics by Cowboy Junkies

 

Sweet Jane Song Lyrics


Anyone who's ever had a heart
Wouldn't turn around and break it
And anyone who's ever played a part
Wouldn't turn around and hate it
Sweet Jane, sweet Jane
Sweet, sweet Jane
You're waiting
For Jimmy down in the alley
Waiting there
For him to come back home
Waiting down on the corner
And thinking of ways
To get back home
Sweet Jane, sweet Jane
Sweet, sweet Jane
Anyone who's ever had a dream
Anyone who's ever played a part
Anyone who's ever been lonely
And anyone who's ever split apart
Sweet Jane, sweet Jane
Sweet, sweet Jane
Heavenly widened roses
Seem to whisper to me
When you smile
Heavenly widened roses
Seem to whisper to me
When you smile
La la la la, la la la,
Sweet Jane
Sweet, sweet Jane

Cowboy Junkies (Original version by Lou Reed)
[Mickey:] "The whole world's coming to an end, Mal." [Mallory:] "I see angels, Mickey. They're comin' down for us from
heaven. And I see you ridin' a big red horse. You're drivin' the horses, whippin' 'em. And they're spittin' and forthin all on the mouth. They're coming right at us. And I see the future. There's no death 'cause you and I, we're angels." [Mickey:] "I
love you, Mal..." [Mallory:] "I know you do, baby. I've loved you since the day we met."
Anyone who's ever had a heart
Wouldn't turn around and break it
And anyone who's ever played a part
Wouldn't turn around and hate it
Sweet Jane
You're waiting for Jimmy down in the alley
Waiting there for him to come back home
Waiting down on the corner
And thinkin' of ways to get back home
Sweet Jane
Heavenly wine and roses
Seem to aspire to me
When you smile
Sweet Jane
