Oh yeah, oh
|
|
You had just walked in from work
|
And there's a letter in the kitchen with your name on it
|
Inside, you will find an
|
Answer for each question you had
|
You had to know the day would come
|
That I'd find out that you are a liar
|
And a player, and the list goes on
|
So it hurts you now
|
But it would hurt even more if I stayed, so
|
|
Hope that you can understand
|
That you were once my man
|
But it's time to move on
|
Since you're playing games, oh
|
|
You thought the day would never come
|
Never ever thought that you
|
Would be reading Dear John
|
You be sure to read each line
|
Line by line, and take your time
|
|
You thought the day would never come
|
Never ever thought that you
|
Would be reading Dear John
|
By the time you read this letter
|
I'll be feeling much better
|
So long, it means I'm gone
|
|
Guess that you are wondering
|
How did she know that I
|
Was the type to play you
|
If you read, you'll find out
|
|
I have to end it
|
Bet I was right from the start
|
And I never took the time to ask myself
|
Why, oh, why would you waste your time
|
On a nigga in the club with a group of thugs
|
You shoulda known it was on
|
When I kept callin' your job
|
And they said that you were sick
|
So I paged you, don't get no call back
|
Now it all makes sense
|
|
The two of us are not meant to be
|
So by the time you read this letter
|
And try to make things better
|
Save your lines
|
But read each one of mine
|
|
Wish you'd see your game was not
|
Strong enough to keep me holding on
|
You be strong, time for me to go cuz
|
|
You thought the day would never come
|
Never ever thought that you
|
Would be reading Dear John
|
You be sure to read each line
|
Line by line, and take your time
|
|
You thought the day would never come
|
Never ever thought that you
|
Would be reading Dear John
|
By the time you read this letter
|
I'll be feeling much better
|
So long, it means I'm gone
|
|
You thought the day would never come
|
Never ever thought that you
|
Would be reading Dear John
|
You be sure to read each line
|
Line by line, and take your time
|
|
You thought the day would never come
|
Never ever thought that you
|
Would be reading Dear John
|
By the time you read this letter
|
I'll be feeling much better
|
So long, it means I'm gone
|
|
I wish I could see the look on your face
|
Ha ha ha, ha ha ha
|
And you wish you could just see my face
|
No no no, no no no
|
You thought I was playin' when I said you had
|
One more time, one more time
|
But if you can play this game
|
Then I can play it too, cuz...
|
|
You thought the day would never come
|
Never ever thought that you
|
Would be reading Dear John
|
You be sure to read each line
|
Line by line, and take your time
|
|
You thought the day would never come
|
Never ever thought that you
|
Would be reading Dear John
|
By the time you read this letter
|
I'll be feeling much better
|
So long, it means I'm gone
