Oh John Lyrics

Oh John, just listen
And hear it ringing 'round your brain
I, too, can hear it
And hope someday we'll see it through

Oh John, remember
The way we used to feel inside
And John, remember
In stone is your new name on end
Only you can see

Here to depart
There, a new wonder
Racing to start
I can't help but fill in the writing
Watch all our tears wash away
Watch all our tears wash away

Oh God, remember
The way we used to feel inside
And Johnny, well, just listen
In stone is your new name on end
Only you can read

Here to depart
There, a new wonder
Racing to start
I can't help but fill in the writing
Watch all our tears wash away
Watch all our tears wash away

I’ve always seen this song as from the perspective of like a victorian housewife or something singing a song to her husband who’s grown bitter and angry over the years due to living in hard times
