Tex Ritter - Dear John lyrics

Dear John, Oh, how I hate to write Dear John, I must let you know tonight That my love for you has died away like gra** upon the lawn And tonight I wed another, Dear John I was overseas in battle when the postman came to me And he handed me a letter, I was happy as I could be For the fighting was all over and the battle had been won Then I opened up the letter and it started, "Dear John." Dear John, Oh, how I hate to write Dear John, I must let you know tonight That my love for you has died away like gra** upon the lawn And tonight I wed another, Dear John Will you please send back my picture, my husband wants it now When I tell you who I'm wedding, you won't care, dear, anyhow Now the ceremony has started and I'll wed your brother Don Will you wish us happiness forever, Dear John? Dear John, Oh, how I hate to write Dear John, I must let you know tonight That my love for you has died away like gra** upon the lawn And tonight I wed another, Dear John
