And she thinks his name was John


A chance meeting, a party a few 
years back
Broad shoulders and blue eyes, his 
hair was so black
He was a friend of friend you could 
say
She let his smile just sweep her 
away
And in her heart she knew that it 
was wrong
But too much wine and she left his 
bed at dawn
And she thinks his name was John


Now each day is one day that's left 
in her life
She won't know love, have a marriage
 or sing lullabies
She lays all alone and cries herself
 to sleep
'Cause she let a stranger kill her 
hopes and her dreams
And all her friends say what a pity 
what a loss
And in the end when she was barely 
hangin' on
All she could say is she thinks his 
name was John

She thinks his name was John
