Anything Goes by Jim Johnston

Words and music: jim johnston

I must admit, i'm kinda freaked out, don't see what the big deal is all about.
One day it wont hurt, but i'm not to that stage, i think in time i'll start to act my age and step into the story where anything goes, it's always been this way, i suppose. hoping i'm doing all right, i take my bows and bask in the light of the unknown.

This will be my saving grace, that somewhere in the human race, there's a girl who can replace you - just a simple cut and paste - then i see your face... where will i ever find another girl like you?

I must concede that i've been misled, missing you keeps messing with my head. but when i'm alone, i kind of freak out, knowing what the big deal is about. - i'll step into the story where anything goes, it's always been this way, i suppose. hoping i'm doing all right, i'll take my bows and bask in the light of the unknown.

Every night i contemplate, the love you handed me was fake, if i can't bend i might just break - you just might be my last mistake, still i'm gonna take - a chance and try to find another girl like you.

And i want her to be, a little kinder too, i just want her to be, - a little less like you!

I must admit, that i've been confused, and its gonna take some time to shake these blues - and step into the story where anything goes, it's always been this way, i suppose. hoping i'm doing it right, i'll take my bows and bask in the light of the unknown.

Way down underneath my skin, there's still some love i once fell in, i don't mind starting out again - if i don't play i'll never win, still i'm wondering - where will i ever find another girl like you? i just want her to be...
