Elton John - Dear John lyrics

[Elton John - Dear John lyrics]

I got home today, took a look around
Trying to find that girl of mine
She could not be found
All her things were gone
She just left a note
It don't take no mastermind to
Figure what she wrote

She said, "Dear John, I'm moving on
By this time I'm going to be long gone
Dear John, c'est la vie, dear John
So long, you've seen the last of me"

I don't want her back, I won't even try
This time isn't just au revoir
This time it's goodbye
We could not go on, living like we were
I was just about to write a
'Dear John' note to her

I was going to say, "Dear John, I'm moving on
By this time I'm going to be long gone
Dear John, c'est la vie, dear John
So long, you've seen the last of me"

She said, "Dear John, I'm moving on
By this time I'm going to be long gone
Dear John, c'est la vie, dear John
So long, you've seen the last of me"


Dear John, I'm moving on
By this time I'm going to
Be long gone, dear John, c'est
La vie, dear John, so long
Dear John, I'm moving on
By this time I'm going to
Be long gone, dear John, c'est
La vie, dear John, so long
