| Oh, dear John | |
| I hate to be the one to break the news | |
| But it’s concerning me and you | |
| This is the letter no one ever wants to write | |
| You may not believe me | |
| But it’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done | |
| My eyes see other glories | |
| Other dreams and other stories | |
| And I want to live before I die, dear John | |
| Ten years on | |
| I still dream and we still hesitate | |
| The passion’s all but gone | |
| Oh, dear John | |
| Seems we have a bad day every day | |
| I want to sleep my life away | |
| This is the letter no one ever wants to read | |
| And though it hurts like hell | |
| It may be what you need to tell you | |
| I never wanted to be cruel | |
| But I’m so tired of being the strong one | |
| And I don’t always have the energy | |
| And you always leave it up to me, John | |
| My eyes have seen the glory | |
| There’s more to life than my life story | |
| And I’ll probably never find him | |
| But I have to keep on looking | |
| And I’m very very sorry, dear John |
