Long were the nightsWhen my days once revolved around youCounting my footstepsPrayin' the floor won't fall through againAnd my mother accused me of losin' my mindBut I swore I was fineYou paint me a blue skyThen go back to turn it to rainAnd I lived in your chess gameBut you change the rules every dayWonderin' which version of youI might get on the phone tonightWell, I stopped pickin' upAnd this song is to let you know whyDear John, I see it all now that you're goneDon't you think I was too young to be messed with?The girl in the dress cried the whole way homeI shoulda knownWell, maybe it's me and my blind optimism to blameOr maybe it's you and your sick needTo give love and take it awayAnd you'll add my nameto your long list of traitorsWho don't understandAnd 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 goneDon't you think I was too young to be messed with?The girl in the dress cried the whole way homeDear John, I see it all now, it was wrongDon't you think nineteen's too young to be played byYour dark, twisted gamesWhen I loved you so?I shoulda knownYou are an expert at "Sorry"And keepin' lines blurryNever impressed by me acing your testsAll the girls that you run dryHave tired, lifeless eyes'Cause you burned them outBut I took your matchesBefore fire could catch meSo don't look nowI'm shining like fireworksOver your sad, empty townDear John, I see it all now that you're goneDon't you think I was too young to be messed with?The girl in the dress cried the whole way homeI see it all now that you're goneDon't you think I was too young to be messed with?The girl in the dress wrote you a songYou shoulda knownYou shoulda knownDon't you think I was too young?You shoulda known
