You told me you were there
I sang a couple of songs and did not know
And everyone would want a picture of
The evening star right there
And then you said to me, I saw you
But you don't know what I did
Though I'm just a small town kid
Jonathan, this is what I do
I write about my life and then I sing
and now I'm singing to you
when it dries right through
You know that you're okay
Dressed up in white and red
You look beautiful, she said
The others wore nice shoes
while the other one agreed
Then you said to me, I saw you,
though I'm just a small town kid
It's what I am, you're not them
I write about my life and then I sing
And now I'm singing to you
When it drives right through
You know that you're okay
People just happen to you
And sometimes I don't even know
But people like you are giving back
Jonathan, this is what I do
I write about my life and then I sing
and now I'm singing to you
when it drives right through
You know that you're okay
