Jason and Martha Songtext
von Andy Rinehart

Though I′ve never spoken with her
I could surely write her words
She could only be a martyr
Jason would she call me hers
Traveling past the duty gravel
Such a darkened leader's day
If only time I could unravel
Who she is I′d know someway

Jason please don't go
To the war across the sea
Though a wish you only are
I would fear your life to leave
Jason, please don't go
To be president today
For the afternoon is passing
Quickly away


I could be her humble leisure
She could take the war away
Sleep has owned this fragile treasure
Silence waiting to be broken
Trembling like a squirrel in autumn
Doesn′t know that he will wake
Only if she′d just appear
Before I cross the sea and go to-

Jason, please don't go
To the war across the sea
For the argument belongs
Not to you or to me
Jason, please don′t try
The president to be
Else the country will become
A burden on your glee

No one knows me, only she sees
I can't choose the wherefore and cast out the why
Over ocean through the water
Signal′s fading, how real is she?
Can you be president for me?

I could be her humble leisure
She could take the war away
If only time I could unravel
Who she is I'd know someway


Jason, please don′t go
To the war across the sea
For our love is barely young
And it needs your company

Jason, please don't go
