Dear John:
Oh, How I hate to write! Dear John, I must let you know tonight that my love
for you has died away like grass upon the lawn. And tonight I wed another, Dear John.
I was overseas in battle when the postman came to
me. He handed me a letter and I was just as happy as I could be, 'cause the fighting was
all over and the battles had all been won. But then I opened up that letter and it
started:
Won't you please send back my picture? My husband
wants it now. When I tell you who I'm wedding, you won't care, do you anyhow? And it hurts
me so to tell you that my love for you is gone. But tonight I wed your brother, dear John.
