Dear John
[00:24.36] Long were the nights
[00:26.22] When my days once revolved around you
[00:36.31] Counting my footsteps
[00:39.23] Prayin' the floor won't fall through again
[00:47.47] And my mother accused me of losin' my mind
[00:53.85] But I swore I was fine
[01:00.49] You paint me a blue sky
[01:03.40] Then go back to turn it to rain
[01:11.38] And I lived in your chess game
[01:15.36] But you change the rules every day
[01:24.39] Wonderin' which version of you
[01:27.59] I might get on the phone tonight
[01:35.83] Well, I stopped pickin' up
[01:38.75] And this song is to let you know why
[01:46.99] Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone
[01:57.61] Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
[02:03.19] The girl in the dress cried the whole way home
[02:11.95] I shoulda known
[02:24.71] Well, maybe it's me and my blind optimism to blame
[02:35.59] Or maybe it's you and your sick need
[02:39.85] To give love and take it away
[02:48.34] And you'll add my name to your long list of traitors
[02:54.45] Who don't understand
[02:59.50] And I'll look back and regret how I ignored when they said
[03:05.87] "Run as fast as you can"
[03:11.98] Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone
[03:22.08] Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
[03:27.65] The girl in the dress cried the whole way home
[03:36.15] Dear John, I see it all now, it was wrong
[03:45.98] Don't you think nineteen's too young to be played by
[03:51.56] Your dark, twisted games when I loved you so?
[04:00.86] I shoulda known
[04:11.75] You are an expert at "Sorry" and keepin' lines blurry
[04:19.18] Never impressed by me acing your tests
[04:24.23] All the girls that you run dry have tired, lifeless eyes
[04:30.07] 'Cause you burned them out
[04:36.98] But I took your matches before fire could catch me
[04:42.82] So don't look now
[04:49.20] I'm shining like fireworks over your sad, empty town
[05:05.94] Oh
[05:18.42] Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone
[05:28.51] Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
[05:34.10] The girl in the dress cried the whole way home
[05:46.32] I see it all now that you're gone
[05:52.69] Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
[05:58.02] The girl in the dress wrote you a song
[06:06.78] You shoulda known
[06:13.15] You shoulda known
[06:22.71] Don't you think I was too young?
[06:29.63] You shoulda known
