 Dear mother,  what can I say?
 It's been  so long since  I went away
 And, yes, I miss  the comforts of home
 But I guess  I'm better off  on my own
No  one told me people could be so cruel
Nobody  told me about any of this in school
Still  nobody understands
 The things  that I don't understand
 I've nothing  to write home about
Nothing  I have figured out
Still  I have the same old doubts
Nothing  to write home about
 Dear John, that ain't my name
 I'm just hanging 'round to take the blame
 I'm filled with guilt, I'm filled with shame
 Too much or not enough, it's all the same
 And no one wants to talk about the loss
 No one wants to talk about the cost
 And everyone just looks away
 Just like any other day
 I've nothing to write home about
 Nothing I have figured out
 Still I have the same old doubts
 Nothing to write home about
Who  can teach  me how to change  my ways?
Who  will come  and save  the day?
Who  will tell  me what to say
 When there's  nothing left  to say?
 Nobody told me about any of this in school
 No one told me I'd be taken for a fool
 And everyone just looks away
 And tries to make it through the day
 I've nothing to write home about
 Nothing I have figured out
 Still I have the same old doubts
 Nothing to write home about
 Enjoy the song !!!
