  • Текст песни Cantatonia - Johnny Come Lately



    I'm sorry you couldn't make it
    You could have seen him
    So weathered and dated

    He was a Johnny Come Lately
    And I know that you would hate it

    If you'd seen his botanical leanings
    First prize exhibit and all down to good spirit

    He was a Johnny Come Lately
    And I know that you would hate me

    If I'd envied the things that he spoke of
    How I envied the things that he thought of

    He was a Johnny Come Lately
    And I know that you would hate me

    If I told you that I made some time
    To stay behind the final line and make the garden grow
    Where the sun no longer shines

    If I asked too many questions
    And stayed behind the final line and made the garden grow
    But he never ever gave away the secret of his godforsaken soil

    He didn't need us
    Just tempted and teased us
    You could have been here
    Wishing you were here

    This was a Johnny Come Lately
    And I know that you would hate me

    He was a Johnny Come Lately
    And I know that you would hate me

    If I told you that I made some time
    To stay behind the final line and make the garden grow
    Where the sun no longer shines

    He assured the seeds you sold were sound
    But I must have cast them all on stony ground
    And now the sun won't shine

    I must have asked too many questions
    And stayed behind the final line and made the garden grow
    But he never ever gave away the secret of his godforsaken soil
