Intersections
de John Mackey
Way back in the thirties, in the little town of Wilder
Lived an old man and his lovely little daughter
They ran gambling for a living
It was the best place around
All the men would come and lay their money down
Her daddy was a jealous man,
But Johanna fell in love
He kept saying the man dealt a bad hand
So deep in the night when all the world is quiet
Someone came and took her lover's life
Johanna, Johanna where are you now?
Could it be you're still here somehow?
Johanna, Johanna where are you now?
Is it true, you're still here somehow?
Now today it's a different place
All the same with a new face
With strange mysteries hangin' in the air
People in their sane minds swear they see you today
Are you lookin' for the love they took away?
Everyone knows that you couldn't bare the pain
So you took your life in the pouring rain
You took your life in the pouring rain
Johanna, Johanna are you really here?
Looking for your lover after all these years?
Johanna, Johanna are you really here?
Has your lover returned after all these years?
Now some may not believe it
And I won't say it's true
But some of us have smelled your rose perfume
Johanna, Johanna are you really here?
Looking for your lover after all these years
Johanna, Johanna are you really here?
Has your lover returned after all these years?
Has your lover returned after all these years?
