Speak Now

Long were the nights when my days once revolved around you

Counting my footsteps, praying the floor won't fall through, again

My mother accused me of losing 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 changed the rules everyday

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

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

I should've known

Well, maybe it's me and my blind optimism to blame

And maybe it's you and your sick need to give love then take it away

And you'll add my name to your long list of traitors who don't understand

And I'll look back and regret how I ignored when they said: "Run as fast as you can."

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 should've known

You're an expert at sorry

And keeping 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

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

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

You should've known

Don't you think I was too young

Youh should've known
