Jonah Lyrics

The bars in the city
Are the wastelands of love
If your heart never hunted
You never gave it much thought
Tonight you're down on your luck,
Your self-esteem is so low
As you pick yourself up,
You're cursing under your breath
Someone please show me the door

Sometimes I wish I could do all I please
And be like you Jonah
Just to follow my dreams
Leave my loves all behind
I'm nothing special
I just do my part
Sometimes I run in the night
When I'm scared of the dark

Jonah, you're gonna be a changed man now
You know that dreamers like you
Can always find your way out
So many tried but did not have enough
The alleys are littered with the souls who gave up
Jonah, my friend
Don't ever give up

Now you've come back
You've got something to share
Where have you gone
Jonah, I'm scared
You said that dreams can be lonely
'cause dreams they don't care
The times you're looking your best
Are the times when you look
Like you just swallowed the whale

Jonah, you're gonna be a changed man now
You know that dreamers like you
Can always find your way out
So many tried but did not have enough
The alleys are littered with the souls who gave up
Jonah, my friend
Don't ever give up
