Johnny And June

Johnny And June

Oh there's something 'bout a man in black,
Makes me want to buy a cadillac,
Throw the top back,
And roll down to Jackson town,
I wanna be there on the stage with you,
You and I could be the next rage to,
Hear the crowd roar,
Make 'em want more
Kick the footlights out

I wanna love like Johnny and June,
Rings of fire burnin' with you,
I wanna walk the line,
Walk the line,
'Till the end of time,
I wanna love,
Love ya that much,
Cash it all in,
Give it all up,
When you're gone,
I wanna go too,
Like Johnny and June

I wanna hold you baby right or wrong,
Build a world around a country song,
Pray a sweet prayer,
Follow you there,
Down in history,

I wanna love like Johnny and June,
Rings of fire burnin' with you,
I wanna walk the line,
Walk the line,
'Till the end of time,
I wanna love,
Love ya that much,
Cash it all in,
Give it all up,
When you're gone,
I wanna go too,
Like Johnny and June

Like Johnny and June,
More than life itself,
No-one else,
This endless promise,
They don't make love like that anymore,
Is that too much to be askin' for,

I wanna love like Johnny and June,
Rings of fire burnin' with you,
I wanna walk the line,
Walk the line,
'Till the end of time,
I wanna love,
Love ya that much,
Cash it all in,
Give it all up,
When you're gone,
I wanna go too,
Like Johnny and June,

Like Johnny and June

And when we're gone,
There'll be no tears to cry,
Only memories of our lives,
They'll remember, remember,
A love like that.


Okay...I sort of just discovered this song this weekend... I think I'd heard it or part of it before, but really hadn't payed any attention to it until... I heard Heidi singing this at the Country Music Festival Sunday night. Something about hearing something like 40,000 people singing along with this song just touched me...

I want a love like Johnny and June too. I think I'm really ready for that in my life. I know I have had my heart broken a few times; but I want someone to love. I know I'm probably being a little unrealistic but I want to find my prince charming. I want to find someone that I can love and share a life with. I want us to build a life together. This song just says it so perfect. Like it says... they don't make love like that anymore... Is it to much to ask for?? I want someone that it can be forever with. Call me a crazy dreamer...but I'm hopeful.
