Dear John Letter Lyrics

Dear John Letter lyrics

Dear John, oh, how I hate to write

Dear John, I must let you know tonight

That my love for you has died away like grass upon the lawn

And tonight I wed another dear John



I was overseas in battle when the postman came to me

And he handed me a letter I was just as happy as I could be

For the fighting was all over and the battle have been won

Then I opened up the letter and that started, dear John



Dear John, oh, how I hate to write

Dear John, I must let you know tonight

That my love for you has died away like grass upon the lawn

And tonight I wed another dear John



Will you please send back my picture, my husband wants it now

And when I tell you who I'm wedding I know you won't care, dear anyhow

Now the ceremony has just started and tonight I'll wed your brother Don

Will you please wish us happiness forever, dear John?
