Baby face, above the keys
Got me tracking down that one Ella song on the radio
I'm wavering down this avenue
And all its corners you've enchanted
I'm high
Growing old don't suit me well
Well, I heard, lately you've been kissing up to all the royalty
Well, nowadays, I'm hopelessly
Spending the first day of spring
Beneath that same big old pine
The long days
I get ahead
So high, oh high
Here's to imaginin' getting a taste of all the things that we would do
Here's to portraying the way as you appeared in all the movie scenes we knew
Never dared just to leave this dream again
So I could play this vicious game that breaks my bones
No, no, no, no
I'll just pretend that you'll be my Mrs. Jones
A pair of eyes, a trusted shape
Oh, it comes with a feeling that I just cannot define anymore
What do you see? Remember me?
As I play through all these picture scenes
I can recall them all
The long days
I get ahead
Still high, so high
Here's to imaginin' getting a taste of all the things that we would do
Here's to portraying the way as you appeared in all the movie scenes we knew
Never dared just to leave this dream again
So I could play this vicious game that breaks my bones
No, no, no, no
I'll just pretend that you'll be my Mrs. Jones
Won't you leave me in this state of mind, there's nothing left to gain
I won't go back to all the mint juleps to smother all that pain
Poising on the street light, as in "Dancing In The Rain"
So you'd get the picture of the decent man that I am trying to be
Trying to be
No, no, no, no
I'll just pretend that you'll be my Mrs. Jones
I'll just pretend that you'll be my Mrs. Jones
I can't pretend that you'll be my Mrs. Jones
I won't pretend that you'll be my Mrs. Jones
