Intro: (2x) verse 1 It was when I rode off in my daydream Chasing that vision of light It was then I got caught in the jet stream And I dropped through a hole in the night Then I knew it's not you that I run from I saw each of us living alone And I prayed that you'd still could be waiting And that's when I started for home Oh my Jenny, oh my Jenny Oh my Jenny my love Oh my Jenny, oh my Jenny You are my rainbow above verse 2 I have seen a great city in darkness Dream lady dressed in cold concrete And I've seen the city of angels With the names of its dead in the streets And for once I could see it all your way And for once I knew I was all wrong And I thought of you there in my doorway And I knew I'd been travellin' too long Oh my Jenny, oh my Jenny Oh my Jenny my love Oh my Jenny, oh my Jenny You are my rainbow above verse 3 When I crossed to the heart of the country I was lost in a forest of signs And I laughed 'cause life gets so funny Here I was wasted from wastin' my time So now shine down you sun on my shadow Without you I don't mean a thing And gather me one golden morning babe 'Cause it's your song that I need to sing Oh my Jenny, oh my Jenny Oh my Jenny my love Oh my Jenny, oh my Jenny You are my rainbow above
