[Verse 1]
When we were young
We could play all day long
By ourselves
We believed that we could
Run a store and a school
All in my room
And we always wished that summer
Would come real soon
[Verse 2]
Then we grew up
We fought and made up
Like all friends do
Then I moved away
Too far, far away
And for so long
We shared heartbreaks
And crushes on the phone
[Chorus]
Janie, oh Janie
Why are you
So far away now?
Janie, Janie
Did I let you down?
Did I hurt you somehow?
Did I, Janie?
[Verse 3]
Now that I'm here to stay
I see you less than when I was away
And when we talk on the phone
Time is short and there's so much to say
And I wonder if our friendship has faded away
[Chorus]
Janie, oh Janie
Why are you
So far away now?
Janie, Janie
Did I let you down?
Did I hurt you somehow?
Did I, Janie?
[Outro]
I know you're hurting now
But I'm here, Janie
