James Video (MV)

"Too young, too thoughtless," I said to myself
With idealistic visions all perched on the shelf
And I'm still hoping, waiting for you to come home

May your snow capped mountains carry you far
May they stand as protectors wherever you are
May you stay safe and happy all of your days

Oh James
Oh James

Maybe you're in love or hung up on another
And maybe you found a far prettier lover
And maybe you'll paint her a picture like you did for me

And you color your world with that Neverland smile
But it goes dark in pieces every once in a while
And on my birthday I told you, "Don't worry, there'll be other days"

Oh James
Oh James

Oh James
Oh James
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

And I'll always be happy if you choose to call
Or write me a letter saying all that you saw
And how things have changed since our days there on Noxontown Pond

No, don't be a stranger, now don't go too far
And though you love places that have lots of stars
Just know in the city, you'll always have a place to stay

Oh James
Oh James
Oh James
Oh James
Oh James
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh James (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Oh James (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Oh James
Oh James (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Oh James (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Oh James (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Oh James
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
