經典分手情歌 A dear John letter

【推薦】經典分手情歌 A dear John letter (很難找)

A Dear John Letter 這首歌據說是源自一段真實的故事。女孩因為男友在海軍服役，被分派至海外駐守，在時空阻隔之下，女孩愛上另一位男孩，而原先的男友一直被蒙在鼓裏，等到他看到這封信，女友早已琵琶別抱，生米煮成熟飯。
　　這個故事，使得A dear John letter成為「絕交信」的代名詞，比較齊全的英漢字典中可以查到相關的說明。如果有女孩說：I'm gonna write a dear John letter.意思是說她準備要寫封信和男友分手。
　　在 A dear John letter 裏還有另一個涵意哦！那個女孩其實是嫁給了男主角的哥哥，就是那個旁白的最後一句裏說的~Tonight I wed your bother─Dear John.也就是說她的確是嫁給她的Dear John，隻不過是Big John-男主角的哥哥而已，所以Tonight I wed another Dear John ,也可以翻成─今晚我嫁給我另一個親愛的約翰。
　　從第二次世界大戰起，在純美式英語的俗諺裏，"A Dear John Letter"的意思就是情侶要求分手的絕情書，特別是指女生寫給男生的分手信。當然若是男生寫給女生的分手信，可能就會變成"A Dear Mary Letter"。有些市麵上的歌本把它譯成「約翰的情書」，歌曲的內容其實大異其趣。在歌曲中的女聲Skeeter Davis反複地唱著那一段短短但要求分手的歌詞「親愛的約翰，我真不願意寫這封信；親愛的約翰，今晚我一定要讓你知道，我對你的愛已成過去，我們沒辦法再繼續下去，因為，今晚我就要和別人結婚了……」。而男聲Bobby Bare則哀怨地以口白訴說著男主角悲慘的遭遇：「我在海外戰場，收到了郵差交給我的一封信，當時我真是快樂無比，因為戰爭剛結束……」這真是情何以堪。
　　

Dear John Letter 絕交信範例一


Dear John Letter
Dear John,

I have been seriously looking back upon our relationship and getting very clear on what I need and desire out of a relationship.

The conclusion I have come to is that we are too different in both our personality and our desired lifestyles to be able to successfully live together with joy, bliss, good communication, and interaction.

This is not about you or about me "winning or losing", or about one of us being wrong -- it is about two ways of being... which do not fulfill each other, or go together. Though I had been open to having you visit with the thought that possibly we could 'try' again, after thinking about it a lot, I realize that it is not a good idea. I am very clear that we are not the 'right' people for each other at this time in our lives.

Please forgive yourself, and me, for any 'mistakes' we made along the way... and remember that we both have grown immensely through being together... but the time has come to move on.

So basically what I am saying is that I would like to 'cancel' my invitation for you to visit. I feel at this time, that I need to move on with my life, and having you come and visit would not serve any positive purpose. You need to accept that this relationship is over and open yourself up to receiving the blessings of the universe...

I think we both need to let go of the past, be grateful for what we had for a time, learn from our experiences, and move on from there.

Dearest John, we have been through a lot together... I have a learned a lot about myself, as you have learnt a lot about yourself. At this point, we are both ready to graduate to the next level in a relationship...What we have learned, whether while we were together, or whether after, through looking back on how we 'operated' together, will serve us in our future relationships.

It has been my experience, that all relationships that end are simply opening the door to another level of joy, and a better relationship built on what we have learnt in the past. So I know and trust that there is someone out there who will support you in your growth while loving you exactly the way you are... which is something that we were not doing for each other. I constantly judged and criticized you, in the same manner that you judged and criticized me... Out there is the perfect person for you that will love you and not find a single thing to criticize about you in the same way that you will not find a single thing to criticize about them... You will accept her as she is, even while seeing that she is not "perfect".

Do not see this as losing something, but rather as having gained knowledge and wisdom... Everything that you learned from us being together, as well as from us being separated, you will be able to put in practice in your next relationship to avoid the traps that we got into.

EVERYTHING ALWAYS WORKS OUT FOR THE BEST, and this is no exception. Trust in yourself, trust in the Universe, trust in the power of Love that rules our lives. Please don’t get into feeling sorry for yourself and wanting to 'end it all'. Rather, thank God for the learning experience, and ask for the openness to recognize the blessings in your life. They are there... open yourself up to being you, accepting yourself completely without judgment, and loving yourself unconditionally.

I wish you joy, I wish you happiness, I wish you heaven on earth. Please trust in yourself and the Universe enough to take some deep breaths, and start looking to find and create joy in your life. It is there... simply step out and claim it.

Blessings to you... Be the light!

歌詞： A dear John letter
Skeeter Davis & Bobby Bare

*Dear John
Oh! how I hate to write
Dear John
I must let you know tonight
That my love for you has gone
There's no reason to go on
And tonight I wed another
Dear John*
<spoken>
I was overseas in battle
When the postman came to me
He handed me a letter
And I was as happy as I could be
Cause the fighting was all over
And the battles they'd all be won
But then I opened up that letter
And it stated Dear John(*)

I was overseas in battle
When the postman came to me
He handed me a letter
Won't you please send back my picture
My hu*****and wants it now

給約翰的一封信 史琪特戴維絲

親愛的約翰
噢！我真不願意寫這封信
親愛的約翰
今晚，我得讓你明白
我對你的愛已消逝
沒有理由再繼續下去
今晚，我已嫁給了別人
親愛的約翰
<口白>
我在海外作戰
當郵差向我走來
他交給我一封信
我高興極了
因為戰爭已經結束
所有戰役都獲得了勝利
但是當我打開這封信
它的開頭是：親愛的約翰───

我在海外作戰
當郵差向我走來
他交給我一封信
"你何不把我的相片寄回來，
我的丈夫現在就要"
