I got a house full of walls 
And utility bills, every Monday the company calls 
I got a nice bed to sleep on 
And a chest of drawers, where I keep those jewels of yours 

Cause you're always mine to keep when you're gone 
Two silvers rings, one's on my finger and the other one's gone 
It went underground with you, oh John 

Ten years passed 
And I ended up with a house full of cats 
But most of them went missing 
On that window you never fixed, the door you never latched 

When you were on your way out like the last time

Cause you are always mine to keep when you're gone 
Two silvers rings, one's on my finger and the other one's gone 
It went underground with you, oh John, oh John

I knew what you were doing 
That summer when Candy came around 
But I had too much hurt to bother you 
When we lost our first child I thought a little payment was overdue 
And I wanted you so bad

Cause you are always mine to keep when you're gone 
Two silvers rings, one's on my finger and the other one's gone 
It went underground with you, oh John, oh John, oh John, o John 

I miss you 
I miss you 
I miss you 
I miss you

Oh John
