Dear John - Lyrics by Lauper Cyndi


Lyrics
What's wrong ? Why can't you justbe anything you want ? Why not ?why not ? I tried to tell you then.
You didn't understand. They try andpigeonhole you. Buddy, they don'teven know you. But hang on my dear,dear, John. Maybe you're not just likeeveryone, so what, so what. And there's more to live for, thansome abbreviated encore, much more,much more. You can't define yourselfin terms of someone else. You can't saywhat you're thinking ? But I don't knowwhat you've been drinking. But don'tcry. '
Cause life goes on. Dear John,you could be anything you want.
Why not ? Why not ?
Why you could even be an astronaut,dear John, dear John.
