wendy was my first love  brenda was a step above  dana was the girl right inbetween  stephanie a tri-delt  never knew how i felt  alicia thought she was a beauty queen  and everywhere i wanna go  they would always tell me no  cause they were too afraid they might be seen  and, all the times i analyze, and always seem to patronize  i finally met a girl i want to be with    now, i can embrace my fears  it's like she's been with me for 20 years  there's only one thing left to say    jolene's the one  so i wrote this song, and it's all about her  and there's no-way  i could stand each day, if i'd never met her    elka had an attitude, left me standing in the nude  and she could never look me in the eye  i once had my best friend's little sister gilian  but she was immature and so am i  but when it comes to waiting and expecting  all these things will end  i cannot find the words to emphasize  the way i'm feeling    now, i can embrace....    jolene i saw your name, and all the others look the same  your milky thighs and long brown hair, i just sit and stare  it fills my heart and makes me glad to think of all the times we had  now that i'm living day to day, i'm gonna be ok
