    I genuinely don't think people understand the simplistic brilliance in John Mayer's music. He isn't just a phenomenal guitar player/singer. He's seriously one of the most poetically intricate songwriters in generations. He's up there with the greats. Unfortunately, it'll probably take a long time for people to really appreciate that about him.

    I was born in the arms of imaginary friends
    Free to roam, made a home out of everywhere I've been
    Then you come on crashing in
    Like the realest thing
    Tried my best to understand
    All that your love can bring
    Half of my heart's got a grip on the situation
    Half of my heart takes time
    Half of my heart's got the right mind to tell you
    That I can't keep loving you
    With half of my heart
    I was made to believe I'd never love somebody else
    Made a plan, stayed the man who can only love himself
    Lonely was the song I sang
    'Til the day you came
    Showing me another way
    And all that my love can bring
    Half of my heart's got a grip on the situation
    Half of my heart takes time
    Half of my heart's got the right mind to tell you
    That I can't keep loving you
    With half of my heart
    With half of my heart
    Your faith is strong
    But I can only fall short for so long
    Down the road later on
    You will hate that I never gave more to you
    Than half of my heart
    But I can't stop loving you
    I can't stop loving you
    I can't stop loving you
    With half of my
    Half of my heart
    Half of my heart
    Half of my heart's got a real good imagination
    Half of my heart's got you
    Half of my heart's got a right mind to tell you
    That half of my heart won't do
    Half of my heart is a shotgun wedding
    To a bride with a paper ring
    And half of my heart is the part of a man
    Who's never truly loved anything
    Half of my heart

    Long were the nights when my
    Days once revolved around you
    Counting my footsteps
    Praying the floor won't fall through, again
    My mother accused me of losing my mind, but I swore
    I was fine
    You paint me blue sky
    Then go back and turn it to rain
    And I lived in your chess game
    But you changed the rules every day
    Wondering which version of you I might get on the phone
    Tonight
    Well, I stopped picking up, and this song is to let you know why
    Dear John
    I see it all now that you're gone
    Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
    The girl in the dress cried the whole way home
    I should've known
    Well, maybe it's me
    And my blind optimism to blame
    Or maybe it's you and your sick need
    To give love then take it away
    And you'll add my name to your long list of traitors
    Who don't understand
    And I'll look back and regret
    I ignored when they said, "Run as fast as you can"
    Dear John
    I see it all now that you're gone
    Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
    The girl in the dress cried the whole way home
    Dear John
    I see it all now, it was wrong
    Don't you think nineteen's
    Too young to be played by your dark, twisted games?
    When I loved you so
    I should've known
    You are an expert at sorry
    And keeping lines blurry
    Never impressed by me acing your tests
    All the girls that you've run dry
    Have tired, lifeless eyes 'cause you burned them out
    But I took your matches before fire could catch me
    So don't look now
    I'm shining like fireworks
    Over your sad empty town
    Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
    Dear John
    I see it all now that you're gone
    Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
    The girl in the dress cried the whole way home
    I see it all now that you're gone
    Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
    The girl in the dress wrote you a song
    You should've known
    You should've known
    Don't you think I was too young?
    You should've known

      “If I ever get around to living
      I'm gonna put my things away
      In the drawers and in the closets
      And there I'll stay, stay
      If I ever get around to living
      It'll be just like I dreamed
      I'm gonna take the love I'm given
      And set it free, free
      If I ever get around to living
      I'll take the end of every day
      Tie it up to every morning
      And sail away, away
      Free
      Free
      Maybe it's all a dream
      I'm having at seventeen
      I don't have tattoos
      And very soon
      Mother will be calling me
      Saying "come up stairs,
      You got some work to do"
      When you gonna wise up, boy?
      When you gonna wise up, boy?
      When you gonna wise up, boy?
      When you gonna wise up, boy?
      You are hiding in your mind
      Working all the time
      Trying to make it better than you got it
      You been spending all your time
      Searching for a sign
      That's never gonna look the way you want it
      I think you better wise up, boy
      I think you better wise up, boy
      I think you better wise up, boy
      I think you better wise up, boy”

    "And half of my heart is the part of a man who's never truly loved anything"
    Deep words. Any man can relate to this after facing their first heartbreak. As a man I think the first time you love cannot be replicated.
    "Down the road later on you will hate that I never gave more to you than half of my heart"
    Again, more deep words. You can love again but not like the first time.

Which is very interesting, because that's where a lot of us are at..Afraid to commit completely..stuck at the threshold of "I can't go back..yet I'm too afraid to go forward".

    Its a song about someone who is screwed up from his past. Hence "I was born in the arms of imaginary friends" and "I was made to believe that Id never love somebody else" Meaning, he did not have anyone to count on or to love him and in fact he was brought up to believe that love wasn't meant for him. He wasn't taught to love so he doesn't know how and too afraid to take that chance. He does the woman a favour by walking away. Who the hell wants someone who is only capable of loving with half of their heart. Sad song actually.

    This is an awesome JM song because it captures the feeling of not being completely in love with someone. That's a pretty tough space for both people. The 'half-heart-loved' person feels that. Even if they accept it, it's not a good feeling to live with. The 'half-heart-lover' person feels guilty for not being able to fully commit to the other person. I was glad to see the lover person cross over and do the right thing. John chose to write him that way, reflecting himself, a true Master, the Man and the King ❣🌟💎👑
