Dear Joan It’s been a while since you called my name and it’s just not the same without you here to play Dear Joan I found your pennies at my door today This time of year thoughts of you keep me awake If I only knew back then that hearts can break what minds can bend You know I never would have taken him away Dear Joan You’re missed more than you know I wish you’d share the secret to your everlasting peace You’re free But December covers me And you know that I won’t ever, ever let ‘em see me cry But sometimes I see you in Jette’s eyes Last night I saw the sun set over Hollywood For a moment I could see a smile across his face Tree lights twinkle on top of Capitol This time of year thoughts of you fill the space And if I only had the chance To give you each the moment back Could you rest knowing he never let you go? Dear Joan You missed more than you know I wish you’d share the secret to your everlasting peace You’re free But December covers me And you know that I won’t ever, ever let ‘em see me cry But sometimes I see you in Jette’s eyes Dear Joan It’s been a while
