taylor swift - dear john / sad beautiful tragic lyrics

[part i: dear john]

[verse 1]
long were the nights
when my days once revolved around you
counting my footsteps
prayin’ the floor won’t fall through again
and my mother accused me of losin’ my mind
but i swore i was fine
you paint me a blue sky
then go back and turn it to rain
and i lived in your chess game
but you change the rules every day
wonderin’ which version of you
i might get on the phone tonight
well, i stopped pickin’ up
and this song is to let you know why

[chorus]
dear john, i see it all now that you’re gone
don’t you think i was too young to be messed with?
the girl in the dress cried the whole way home
dear john, i see it all now, it was wrong
don’t you think nineteen’s too young to be played by
your dark, twisted games when i loved you so?
i shoul’ve known
[part ii: sad beautiful tragic]

[verse 1]
long handwritten notes deep in your pocket
words, how little they mean when you’re a little too late
i stood right by the tracks, your face in a locket
good girls, hopeful they’ll be and long they will wait

[chorus]
we had a beautiful, magic love there
what a sad, beautiful, tragic love affair

[part iii: dear john]

[bridge]
you are an expert at “sorry” and keepin’ lines blurry
never impressed by me acing your tests
all the girls that you run dry have tired, lifeless eyes
’cause you burned them out
but i took your matches before fire could catch me
so don’t look now
i’m shining like fireworks over your sad, empty town
oh

[chorus]
dear john, i see it all now that you’re gone
don’t you think i was too young to be messed with?
the girl in the dress wrote you a song
you should’ve known
[outro]
you should’ve known
