madeleine holden - johnny said lyrics

Loading...

johnny said: “it’s not safe for you and me”
and johnny said: “we should go to another place”
i believed in it all, slightly afraid
seventeen, i did not know all the dangers awaiting ahead for johnny and me

johnny, i thought you’d save me
i thought i’d be free away from it all
johnny, i thought you loved me
you act like you own me and i gotta go
before you know

johnny made us a home a million miles away
and johnny gave me new clothes, i did not look the same
everything i used to know suddenly changed
johnny had saved all his rage for when we were alone in a city i didn’t know a soul

johnny, i thought you’d save me
i thought i’d be free away from it all
johnny, i thought you loved me
you act like you own me and i gotta go
before you know

johnny said it’s my fault this child is born
he tried his best to destroy what was made out of love once
while johnny slept i escaped with my baby in my arms
but in my head i heard johnny say
“if you run, i will find you, i will haunt you down”

johnny, i thought you’d save me
i thought i’d be free away from it all
johnny, i thought you loved me
you act like you own me and i gotta go
before you know

johnny died by himself in the home he had made me
i survived, i’m alive, and so is my baby
it was me or him
“self-defence” – that’s what they named it
but here’s the truth: while johnny slept
i went back and i ended the story of johnny and me
