#1dear 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 changed the rules everyday
Wondering which version
of you I might get on the phone
Tonight well I stopped picking up
and this song is to let you know why
Dear John, I see it all
now that you're 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 then 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
Dear John, I see it all
now that you're 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 it was wrong
Don't you think nineteen's too
young to be played by
Your dark twisted games
when I loved you so
I should've known
You are 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 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
Dear John, I see it all
now that you're 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 you're 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
Long were the nights when
my days once revolved around you
Counting my footsteps praying
the floor won't fall through again

But I swore I was fine
You paint me a blue sky

And I lived in your chess game
