Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Jean, Jean, the roses are red
All the leaves have gone green
And the clouds are so low
You can touch them, and so
Come out to the meadow, Jean
[Verse 2]
Jean, Jean, you're young and alive
Come out of your half-dreamed dream
And run, if you will, to the top of the hill
Open your arms, Bonnie Jean
[Verse 3]
Till the sheep in the valley come home my way
Till the stars fall around me and find me alone
When the sun comes a-singin', I'll still be waitin'
[Verse 4]
For Jean, Jean, roses are red
And all of the leaves have gone green
And the hills are ablaze with the moon's yellow haze
Come into my arms, Bonnie Jean
[Verse 5]
And the clouds are so low
You can touch them, and so
Come into my arms, Bonnie Jean
