Dear John

Everybody was talking to me like I was a child
In their words I could hear them saying
It's just a matter of time
Anyway it's a long, long race been run
Anyway it's a sad, sad song been sung

"Dear John, goodbye," she said
"Sometimes it's hard," she said
"Dear John, I've broken away"

Vanity is a hard old lady
You can't read her mind
I'm a fool but I don't fool easy
While you're foolin' around
Anyway I can hold my own tonight
I admit I was wrong and you were right

"Dear John, goodbye,' she said
"Sometimes it's hard," she said
"Dear John, I've broken away"

"Dear John, goodbye," she said
"Sometimes it's hard," she said
"Dear John, I've broken away"

"Dear John, goodbye," she said
"Sometimes it's hard," she said
"Dear John, I've broken away"

Everybody was talking to me like I was a child
In their words I could hear them saying
It's just a matter of time
Anyway it's a long, long race been run
Anyway it's a sad, sad song been sung

"Dear John, goodbye," she said
"Sometimes it's hard," she said
"Dear John, I've broken away"

"Dear John, goodbye," she said
"Sometimes it's hard," she said
"Dear John, I've broken away"

"Dear John, goodbye," she said
"Sometimes it's hard," she said
"Dear John, I've broken away"
