Dear John

Long were the nights when my days once revolved around you 
Counting my footsteps, 
praying the floor won't fall through, again 
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 every day 
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 
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 19 is 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 run dry 
with 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


Taylor Swift is back with a brand new album 'Speak Now'. Plus there's a deluxe edition. Haa. I'm going on a T.Swift songs' marathon. =)


I felt something while listening to this song then checked out the lyric. Sad feel, but nice written song. I wonder who is the 'John' written by her. Ponders. Go listen!
