Emmajayy Dear John (The One) Lyrics

I've never been able to understand
why all these girls you've got placed in your hand
are so satisfied with being just the 5th in line.
Its like they're all cast under some kinda spell
thinking they can be the one to change you,
well, I've tried, sweetie, I've tried
and this is how it goes down.

(Chorus)
You love, you love, you love
until you can't love anymore
and then you realize life's too short
to keep on waiting.
And it's sad, it's sad, it's sad
but you will sit back & relax
and you'll hope maybe he'll turn back one day and realize
that you're the one, the one, the one.

Realize you're the one, the one, the one.

I've never been good at letting you go
so lets start by just taking it slow
and I'll be your friend and you can tell me about
all of them.
The other ones that I never thought existed
when my heart was under your lock
but now that its not
I'm available to listen
'Cause...

(Chorus) I loved, I loved, I loved
but I can't love you anymore
because I realized life's too short
to keep on waiting.
And it's sad, it's sad, it's sad
but I'll just sit back and relax
and hope that maybe you'll turn back someday and realize
that i'm the one, the one, the one.

Realize I'm the one, the one, the one.

(Bridge)
Dear John,
I think its time for me to move on.
'cause I'm just not that strong anymore.
I can't keep on pretending.
You can call and I'll answer but I won't fall.
'Cause I'm not sure of anything
that you say anymore, but I'll listen
when you say that...

(Chorus)
You love, you love, you love
you don't know how to love anymore
Don't you realize life's too short
to keep on playing
And it's sad, it's sad, it's sad
that you can't sit back and relax.
You think you're too gone to turn back.
Don't you realize that you've always been
the one, the one, the one.
