Mister Jones

Verse 1:
Mister Jones
How are you tonight?
It was candlelight
Last time we met
You’re all bones
And your face is tight
It looks like you may not be over her yet

Chorus 1:
It took two dozen years to get tired of her  [could change to “half dozen” for age]
And a dozen to fight that last fight
Now you’re here to unburden your soul if you dare
With some whiskey and a big appetite

Verse 2:
Mister Jones
Well you must have known
Leaving her alone
Could lead to no good
Telephones
And some new cologne
Can tell more than any confessional could

Chorus 2:
And the candles burned down to the tablecloth
And the dinner was cold as her heart
And the lawyers divided that house as it fell
They were certainly better apart

Verse 3:
Mister Jones
How are you tonight?
It was candlelight
Last time we met
You’re all bones
And your face is tight
It looks like you may not be over me yet

Chorus 3:
It took three dozen years to unravel me
And now it’s to late to pretend
That you just can’t love me and I can’t forgive
So we’re back to the start of our lives at the end
