Dear John Lyrics - The Forgotten Arm - Aimee Mann

Cotton candy was king 

On the midway that spring 

When I saw you in the ring on the lawn 

Dear John 

Throwing kisses so Richmond's unfortunates can go on 

Oh, the lectures I gave 

So the girls would behave 

While the band played all your favorite songs 

Dear John 

Throwing kisses so Richmond's unfortunates can go on 

But numbers come up and you're left to the fates 

Though I always thought you were one of the greats 

Once somebody stationed in Kuala Lumpur 

Said he thought you went out, but he couldn't be sure 

And the midway I knew 

Where the sky was so blue 

With the memory of you is gone 

Dear John 

Throwing kisses so Richmond's unfortunates can go on [Repeat: x5]
