I never thought I'd see the day I'd be living without you
Now I can't even look you in the eye
'Cause I know what it does when I see you cry
And that's not what I wanna do
So here's my dear John, don't waste your time
When you respond I'll be gone
Before I change my mind
I'll just stop now and say goodbye
Now I realized all the promises I've made to you through the years
And all the times you forgave me even when I caused you tears
But I just can't do it can't hurt you again
You might say that I'm less than a man
But this is what I need to do
So here's my dear John, don't waste your time
When you respond I'll be gone
Before I change my mind
I'll just stop now and say goodbye
Now I know you probably readin' this sayin' this ain't happenin'
Maybe one day we'll start all over and we can try again
But right now I just gotta go, I'm not comin' back until I'm sure
That I ain't gonna hurt you no more
So here's my dear John, don't waste your time
When you respond I'll be gone
Before I change my mind
I'll just stop now and say goodbye
I'll just stop now and say goodbye
I'll just stop now and say goodbye
This just might be the hardest thing I ever had to do I never thought I'd see the day I'd be living without you Now I can't even look you in the eye 'Cause I know what it does when I see you cry And that's not what I wanna do So here's my dear John, don't waste your time When you respond I'll be gone Before I change my mind I'll just stop now and say goodbye Now I realized all the promises I've made to you through the years And all the times you forgave me even when I caused you tears But I just can't do it can't hurt you again You might say that I'm less than a man But this is what I need to do So here's my dear John, don't waste your time When you respond I'll be gone Before I change my mind I'll just stop now and say goodbye Now I know you probably readin' this sayin' this ain't happenin' Maybe one day we'll start all over and we can try again But right now I just gotta go, I'm not comin' back until I'm sure That I ain't gonna hurt you no more So here's my dear John, don't waste your time When you respond I'll be gone Before I change my mind I'll just stop now and say goodbye I'll just stop now and say goodbye I'll just stop now and say goodbye Explain Request ×
