DEAR JOHN LETTER
JUST WHITNEY...

Uh, Uh, Uh, Oh, Uh, Oh, C'mon, Wha, Uh
Yeah...

I’m sitting here
In my own head
Thinkin' how you could be staring in
Got my number 2 and I’m writing you
Contemplating on paper what I should do
On the fire place or with the mail man
Should I tell you or should I hold it in
If my heart wasn’t in it
Baby you can just forget it
I’ll be gone in a New York minute

You never give me attention
I know you don't have bad intentions for us
So I’m writing you
But I always fail to mention
Cause you know I really don’t like to fuss
So I’m gonna hold it in

I’m writing you a dear John letter (Dear John letter)
I tried to stay but it never got better (better)
I couldn’t tell you face to face but I
I had to let you know
Sometimes I wanna hit the door
I’m writing you, Dear John

Sometimes I think that I’ve had enough
My hands freeze
And I can’t write fast enough
I wanna get away
But I can’t obey
When my hearts speaks you know I’m listening
Some days I’m ready to jet and
Some days I’m willing to forget and
Some days I’m so in love with you
Some days I’m sad and blue, Oh

When I don’t check myself
I get frustrated with you
And I don’t know what I’m gonna do
I know that it’s not just you
It’s some of my negligence too
And I can’t go through with mailing this to you

Dear John letter (Dear John letter)
I tried to stay but it never got better (better)
I couldn’t tell you face to face but I
I had to let you know
Sometimes I wanna hit the door

I’m writing you a Dear John letter
I tried to stay but it never got better
I couldn’t tell you face to face but I
I had to let you know
(Sometimes) I wanna hit the door

When I don’t check myself
I get frustrated with you
And I don’t know what I’m gonna do
I know that it’s not just you
It’s some of my negligence too
And I can’t go through with mailing this to you

Dear John letter (Dear John letter, letter, letter)
I tried to stay but it never got better
I couldn’t tell you face to face but I
I had to let you know
Sometimes I wanna hit the door

I'm writing you a Dear John letter (Dear John letter)
I tried to stay but it never got better (never got better, never got better)
I couldn’t tell you face to face but I (couldn't tell, couldn't tell ya)
I had to let you know
Sometimes I wanna hit the door
I'm writing you Dear John

I’m writing this letter
Because it makes me feel better
I’m writing this letter
Because it makes me feel better
I’m writing this letter
Because it makes me feel better
I’m writing this letter
Because it oooohuunnh
I’m writing this letter baby
I can’t go through with it
oh no no no (oh no no no)
I can’t (I can’t)
I can’t
I can’t leave
I can’t stay
I can’t go but I
Mh, mh, mh, mh, mh, mh, mh, mh, mh, mh, mh

Writing you this letter
Writing you Dear John...Dear John-mmmmmmhn
I’m writing
I’m writing a Dear John letter
I’m writing a Dear John letter
I’m writing a Dear John letter
I’m writing a Dear John letter
I’m writing a Dear John letter
I’m writing a Dear John letter
I’m writing a Dear John letter
I'm writing--oh!
