Lyrics

[00:18.020] Dear John
[00:20.950] He spent a lifetime counting money
[00:26.270] So long
[00:29.730] The years they all merge into one
[00:32.890] 68, 79, 82, and 95
[00:36.920] he made a living from accountancy
[00:40.500] But then he cried I've had enough
[00:46.100] He said Baby
[00:48.040] Do you read me?
[00:50.190] I think these numbers are
[00:51.920] Beginning to eat me
[00:54.460] He said Baby
[00:56.670] Do you read me?
[00:59.040] I think these numbers are
[01:00.670] Beginning to eat me
[01:14.220] Dear John
[01:16.170] Why don't you answer your calls?
[01:18.800] He's had enough of doing your tax returns
[01:21.920] What's wrong?
[01:24.930] You're not at work or at home
[01:27.490] He's on a train heading down to the coast
[01:32.000] Picked up your leather briefcase on the beach
[01:35.710] And a message on your dictaphone
[01:39.880] And it said Baby
[01:42.080] Do you read me?
[01:44.120] I think these numbers are
[01:45.830] Beginning to eat me
[01:48.330] And it said Baby
[01:51.120] Do you read me?
[01:53.080] I think these numbers are
[01:54.960] Beginning to eat me
[02:00.020] Some say he made the swim to Normandy
[02:06.430] And lost his heart to a local girl
[02:12.540] They lived with 25 of her family
[02:19.600] One mother
[02:20.260] One father
[02:20.720] Three sisters
[02:21.280] Four brothers
[02:21.780] Eight nephews
[02:22.170] Eight nieces
[02:22.860] Two uncles
[02:23.310] Three aunts
[02:23.880] Plus
[02:25.330] Three dogs
[02:27.690] Equals
[02:37.740] Goodbye
[02:39.730] Farewell
[02:41.660] Cheerio
[02:44.030] See ya
[02:46.020] Adieu
[02:48.130] Au revoir
[02:50.500] Toodle pip
[02:53.020] So long
