Jimmy lyrics

[Verse 1]

Jimmy used to run through the streets at night

To escape from all the fighting

He was always told that he wasn't right

So he just kept on writing

Writing to a dad that he wished he'd had

That he didn't know he needed, he said

"We should run away, but today we'll stay"

And I haven't seen him since that day, now I got

[Chorus]

Jimmy on my mind, felt like yesterday

But I don't see him anymore, anymore

Jimmy, he got tired, so he couldn't stay

Now I don't see him anymore, anymore

[Post-Chorus]

Nah, nah, no, no

I don't see him anymore

Nah, nah, nah, ah

[Verse 2]

Jimmy would come over after school sometimes

And we'd dance around the garden

He would never talk, but when he would try

It would never come out right and

One day he had to go when his mum called him home

And he looked at me and smiled and he said

"We should run away, but today we'll stay"

And I haven't seen him since that day, now I got

[Chorus]

Jimmy on my mind, felt like yesterday

But I don't see him anymore, anymore

Jimmy, he got tired so he couldn't stay

Now I don't see him anymore, now I got

Jimmy on my mind, feels like yesterday

But I don't see him anymore, anymore

Jimmy, he got tired, but he couldn't stay

Now I don't see him anymore, anymore

[Post-Chorus]

Nah, nah, no, no

I don't see him anymore

Nah, nah, nah, ah

[Bridge]

And I pictured you back in the day when we were nine

We said that someday we would leave this all behind

And I pictured you back in the day when we were nine

We said that someday we would leave this all behind

Now I got

[Chorus]

Jimmy on my mind, felt like yesterday (Oh, oh, oh lord)

But I don't see him anymore, anymore

Jimmy, he got tired, so he couldn't stay

Now I don't see him anymore, now I got

Jimmy on my mind, feels like yesterday

But I don't see him anymore, anymore

Jimmy, he got tired, but he couldn't stay

Now I don't see him anymore, anymore

[Post-Chorus]

Nah, nah, no, no

I don't see him anymore

Nah, nah, nah, nah, ah

I don't see him anymore

Nah, nah, nah, ah

I don't see him anymore

Nah, nah, nah, ah
