So he told you that you're the dream that he's been searching for

And he told you that he'd never met anyone like you before

And I can hear him telling you your lips taste just like sherry wine

But did he tell you that he's known as Johnny One Time

Did he tell you that your heart would soon become

Another trinket on his bracelets of broken hearts

Did he tell you that the morning sun will find you

Patching up your shattered pride and searching for the missing parts

Did he tell you that the special love you're saving

Will disappear in flames of shame like mine

Did he tell you that he's known as Johnny One Time

So he told you that he'd never lead your heart astray

And he told you that he'd love you forever and a day

And I can hear him telling you that he's the shy and bashful kind

But did he tell you that he's known as Johnny one time

Oh did he tell you that your heart will soon become

Another trinket on his bracelets of broken hearts

And did he tell you that the morning sun will find you

Patching up your shattered pride and searching for the missing parts

Did he tell you that the special love you're saving

Will disappear in flames of shame like mine

Oh did he tell you that he's known as Johnny One Time
