Dear Joan Lyrics

Artist: Matchbox 20
Album: Don't Play With Matches (Tabitha's Secret?)

dear Joan
IæŠ³e 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 IæŠ³e sprung
I guess IæŠ³e grown tired, itæŠ¯ just whatæŠ¯ expected of me
to tear your heart from the inside to the outside
you know I was wired, I just couldnæŠ° help it
the hundred thousand times I hurt you

CHORUS:
dear joan, I wanted to say
that IæŠ¦ sorry for the screaming last night
and the nights before
well IæŠ³e wanted more from this
than anything IæŠ³e ever known
dear Joan

dear joan
your face has a brightness that IæŠ³e never seen
in the years that IæŠ³e 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 IæŠ³e shown

(CHORUS)

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

(CHORUS) x 2
