Jenny was the girl that I once called my own

She died 'neath the wheels of a midnight train tryin' to find a high school ring

And that's when I first heard the sound of an angel's wings

Oh, how my poor heart cried the day they took her a- way

Then somethin' deep in- side me seem to say

Good- bye my love re- member me, I'll wait for you in e- ternity
