I just held on and hoped you’d find The nowhere else you’d find my kind Dear John, oh yes I did all I could To make it be like the wallflower who never could And I admit I wasn’t pure, dear John When I try so hard to make you sure Life without you is not a cure Dear John
And my unsung hero lies beneath The rooftops made of gold He’s telling me I should jump He’ll be there when I fall So I step back, pretend I’m shocked Really I always knew This would happen to me and you, dear John I just held on and hoped you’d find The nowhere else you’d find my kind Dear John Love’s almighty
