Rob Thomas, Jay Stanley, Brian Yale and John Goff Dear Joan, I've almost forgotten The pane in the window, the blue dress in the doorway Dear Joan, help me remember The face I forget, and the traps that I've sprung I guess I've grown tired, It's just what's expected of me To tear your heart, from the inside to the outside You know I was wired, I just couldn't help it The hundred thousand times I hurt you Chorus: Dear Joan I wanted to say, I'm sorry for the screaming last night, and the nights before I've wanted more from this than anything I've ever known, Dear Joan Dear Joan, your face has a brightness That I've never seen, in the years that I've known you Dear Joan, I'd pick up the pieces But some scattered too far, they flew when I kicked them I know you believed when I said it was over You stood by me patiently, waiting and brooding So deeply in love, with every face that I've shown Repeat Chorus Once I forget, twice I'm a fool Three times I wrap my hands around your neck While your sleeping So quietly sleeping Sleeping and dreaming Dear Joan, don't walk out the doorway Because if you did, I believe I could honestly kill you Repeat Chorus x2
