Janie Blu

Where you off to, Janie Blu?
Don’t you know that your daddy ain’t home?
He went and left that blame with you
And that’s a real heavy thing to hold, to hold
Ayy
I’ve seen you lean on sweet addictions
When the pain’s just a little too much
Do you think you’ll find redemption
In the arms of a stranger’s touch, a stranger’s touch?
Ayy
Why you wanna keep runnin'
From the one thing that’s been true?
I know I can’t keep clingin'
To my Janie Blu
Sometimes, I think you might be healing
And other times, I ain’t so sure
Girl, there ain’t no shame in bleeding
But no such thing as pure
Why you wanna keep runnin'
From the one thing that’s been true?
I know I can’t keep clingin'
To my Janie Blu
Well, I’ve held you through the darkness
But, girl, I must confess
Right now, I’m barely hangin' on
Like the cross around your neck
Why you wanna keep runnin'
From the one thing that’s been true?
I can’t keep clingin'
To my Janie Blu
