It happened, I felt it happened
I was awake, I wasn't blind
I didn't think, I felt it happened
Now I believe in matter over mind

And now you see we mustn't wait
The nearest moment that we marry is too late

Have you met Miss Jones?
Someone said we shook hands
She was just Miss Jones to me

Oh, then I said, "Miss Jones
You're a girl who understands
And I'm a man who must be free"

And all at once I lost my breath
And all at once was scared to death
And all at once I own the earth and sky

Now I've met Miss Jones
We'll keep on meeting till we die
Yes, miss Jones and I

Have you met Miss Jones?
Someone said as we shook hands
She was just Miss Jones to me

Oh, then I said, "Miss Jones
You're a girl who understands
I'm a man who must be free"

And all at once I lost my breath
And all at once was scared to death
And all at once I own the earth and sky

Oh, now I've met Miss Jones
We'll keep on meeting till we die
Yes, Miss Jones and I
Oh, Miss Jones and I
