Dear John

from Wisdom Listens by Michael Mastro

/

lyrics

erse 1:
The second hand is ticking away
Staring at himself in the mirror
Naked by the phone holding back his fears
She's not the kind to change her mind
She keeps him waiting holding his last breath
Sleeping with himself and the late tv
He's still got time, maybe he could just start over

Chorus
She wrote Dear John, I couldn't find a way, to break it off right or wrong
Dear John, I didn't have the heart and I'm still in love, but it's over

Verse 2:
He was down and she was his drug
Drowning in his blissful addiction
Bound to waste away in his rusty cage
Must have been so out of his mind
To think that they could keep it together
Far away as she is his love still shines
Still got time, to save is reputation

Bridge:
All his expectations, burned out fine
The center of attention, slipped his mind
Drink it down, wash away her love

Chorus
She wrote Dear John, I couldn't find a way, to break it off right or wrong
Dear John, I didn't have the heart and I'm still in love, now I'm gone
Dear John, I couldn't find a way, to break it off right or wrong
Dear John, I didn't have the heart and I'm still in love, but it's over

Out:
It's over
Yes it's over
