Dear John

Long were the nights when my
Days once revolved around you
Counting my footsteps
Praying the floor won't fall through again
And my mother accused me of losing my mind
But I swore I was fine
You paint me a blue sky
And go back and turn it to rain
And I lived in your chess game
But you change the rules everyday
Wonderin' which version of you I might get on the phone
Tonight
Well I stopped pickin' up
and this song is to let you know why

Chorus:
Dear John
I see it all now that your gone
Don't you think I was too young
to be messed with the girl in the dress
Cried the whole way home
I should've known

Well maybe it's me and my
Blind optimism to blame
Or maybe it's
You and your sick need
To give love and take it away
And you'll
Add my name to your long list of traitors
Who don't
Understand
And I'll look back and regret
How I ignored when they said
Run as fast as you can

Chorus:
Dear John I see it all now that your gone
don't you think I was too young to be messed
with the girl in the dress
cried the whole way home
Dear John I see it all now I was wrong
Don't you think nineteens too young to be played
by your dark twisted Games  
When I loved you so 
I should've known

Bridge:
your an expert at sorry
and keeping lines blurry
never impressed by me acing your tests
all the girls that you've run dry
have tired lifeless eyes
cause you've burned them out
but I took your matches
before fire could catch me
so don't look now
I'm shining like fireworks
over your sad empty town

Chorus:
Dear John
I see it all now that your gone
don't you think I was too young to be messed with the girl in the dress
cried the whole way home
I see it all now that your gone
don't you think I was too young to be messed with the girl in the dress wrote you a song
you should've known
you should've known
Don't you think I was too young?
You should've known.
