Dear Joan Lyrics

Matchbox 20

dear Joan
Ia¦ÂŠÂ³e almost forgotten, the pane in the window
blue dress in the doorway
dear Joan
help me remember, the face I forget
and the traps that Ia¦ÂŠÂ³e sprung
I guess Ia¦ÂŠÂ³e grown tired, ita¦ÂŠÂ¯ just whata¦ÂŠÂ¯ expected of me
to tear your heart from the inside to the outside
you know I was wired, I just couldna¦ÂŠÂ° help it
the hundred thousand times I hurt you

CHORUS:
dear joan, I wanted to say
that Ia¦ÂŠÂ¦ sorry for the screaming last night
and the nights before
well Ia¦ÂŠÂ³e wanted more from this
than anything Ia¦ÂŠÂ³e ever known
dear Joan

dear joan
your face has a brightness that Ia¦ÂŠÂ³e never seen
in the years that Ia¦ÂŠÂ³e known you
dear joan
I pick up the pieces, but some scattered too far
you say they flew when I kicked them

I know you believed when I said it was over
you stood by me patiently waiting and broading
so deeply in love with every face that Ia¦ÂŠÂ³e shown

(CHORUS)

once I forgive, twice Ia¦ÂŠÂ¦ a fool, three times I wrapped my hands around your neck
while youa¦ÂŠÂ®e sleeping, youa¦ÂŠÂ®e quietly sleeping, sleeping and dreaming
dear joan
dona¦ÂŠÂ° walk out the doorway
because if you did
I believe I could honestly kill you

(CHORUS) x 2
