Lyrics

[00:24.54] Long were the nights
[00:26.93] When my days once revolved around you
[00:36.58] Counting my footsteps,
[00:39.66] Praying the floor won't fall through, again
[00:48.15] My mother accused me of losing my mind,
[00:53.73] but I swore I was fine
[00:59.54]
[01:00.73] You paint me a blue sky
[01:03.59] And go back and turn it to rain
[01:11.98] And I lived in your chess game,
[01:15.36] but you changed the rules every day
[01:24.86] Wondering which version of you I might get on the phone
[01:33.78] Tonight
[01:36.29] Well I stopped picking up,
[01:38.79] And this song is to let you know why
[01:45.13]
[01:47.40] Dear John,
[01:51.84] I see it all now that you're gone
[01:58.01] Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
[02:03.67] The girl in the dress,
[02:06.04] Cried the whole way home.
[02:12.46] I should've known
[02:14.17]
[02:25.03] Well maybe it's me and my blind optimism to blame
[02:36.08] Maybe it's you and your sick
[02:38.60] Need to give love then take it away
[02:48.65] And you'll add my name to your long list
[02:53.28] Of traitors who don't understand
[03:00.19] And I'll look back and regret how I ignored
[03:04.76] When they said "run as fast as you can"
[03:12.12]
[03:12.67] Dear John,
[03:16.19] I see it all now that you're gone
[03:22.37] Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
[03:27.85] The girl in the dress,
[03:30.30] Cried the whole way home
[03:35.90]
[03:36.42] Dear John,
[03:40.25] I see it all, now it was wrong
[03:46.45] Don't you think 19 is too young to be played
[03:51.46] By your dark twisted games, when I loved you so?
[04:00.93] I should've known
[04:04.72]
[04:12.09] You are an expert at sorry
[04:16.44] and keeping lines blurry
[04:19.60] Never impressed by me acing your tests
[04:24.68] All the girls that you run dry
[04:28.20] with tired, lifeless eyes
[04:30.87] cause you burned them out
[04:37.62] But I took your matches before fire could catch me
[04:43.23] So don't look now:
[04:49.73] I'm shining like fireworks over your sad, empty town
[05:05.82]
[05:19.00] Dear John,
[05:22.87] I see it all now that you're gone
[05:28.92] Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
[05:34.45] The girl in the dress,
[05:36.87] Cried the whole way home.
[05:46.97] I see it all now that you're gone
[05:52.37]
[05:53.05] Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
[05:58.59] The girl in the dress wrote you a song
[06:07.53] You should've known
[06:13.53] You should've known
[06:23.16] Don't you think I was too young?
[06:30.22] You should've known
[06:32.33]
[06:32.84]
