Dear John

So long, you've seen the last of me"
I don't want her back, I won't even try

It don't take no mastermind to figure what she wrote
Dear John, c'est la vie, dear John
Dear John, c'est la vie, dear John
We could not go on, livin' like we were
Dear John, I'm moving on, by this time I'm gonna
I was just about to write a 'Dear John' note to her
Dear John, I'm moving on, by this time I'm gonna

I was gonna say, "Dear John, I'm moving on
She said, "Dear John, I'm moving on
So long, you've seen the last of me"

This time ain't just au revoir, this time it's goodbye

So long, you've seen the last of me"
Be long gone, dear John, c'est la vie, dear John, so long
Dear John, I'm moving on, by this time I'm gonna
Dear John, c'est la vie, dear John
Be long gone, dear John, c'est la vie, dear John, so long
All her things were gone, she just left a note
By this time I'm gonna be long gone
Dear John, I'm moving on, by this time I'm gonna
She said, "Dear John, I'm moving on
By this time I'm gonna be long gone
Be long gone, dear John, c'est la vie, dear John, so long
By this time I'm gonna be long gone
