Lyrics for Jane Allen

Jane Allen took me by surprise said she heard I was a married man Might have known she? D wanna find out exactly how married I am She took me the wrong way home to get me on my own Jane Allen had a bunch of stuff from the old days she wanted to deal with How come the things that we had done had left her with a mess of feelings She took me the long way home, no signal on my phone Jane Allen took me to a place where she thought I? D be defenceless I had to let her down gently to bring her to her senses She took me the wrong way home I know I should have told you I guess I did not understand That you might need convincing too, that I? M a faithful family man Jane Allen went to her bed smiling but without me I don? T know how to tell you this without that you should doubt me You? D take it the wrong way I know, you just wouldn? T let it go It was over a long time ago - believe me I love you so.
