Claire Jones

She's an RN working for the weekends

He is back but she doubts he plans to stay

Another patient passed last week and she waits

In the driveway

To finish crying

She's Claire Jones, Claire Jones

Claire Jones, Claire Jones

Claire Jones, Claire Jones

If you could change a single thing, you'd change your name

A white rose in the desert drowning in the rain

Oh, the desert used to be dry

And now the rain's pouring from her еyes

And Claire Jones, Clairе Jones

You don't know your strength

But Claire Jones, don't you know?

I long to be as strong someday

You're an RN working every weekend

Paying time just to get your pay

And you say that you're fine as you wait in the driveway

To finish crying

A wallflower 'til she goes outside

She hikes a mountain like it's nothing

And dances in the sky until her eyes dry

Until her eyes dry

And Claire Jones, Claire Jones

You're sad your hair's turned gray

But Claire Jones, don't you know?

You're gorgeous either way

Only smiled once today to put on her blush

Did her hair, then slipped on scrubs and left in a rush

There she goes

Claire Jones
