This song has nothing to do with Taylor Swift. Take a look at the bigger picture. They were never rumored to be a big couple. She sang a "duet" on Battle Studies and that was more or less the extent of it. She was a young, easily persuaded girl and he was John Mayer. She was swept up. The last thing on his mind, when writing this song, was Taylor Swift.

I feel like certain parts are in response to Taylor Swift. When he says "I'm not some trouble maker and I never meant her harm, but it doesn't mean I didn't make it hard to carry on." That, says to me, he's in a way trying to defend himself and say he's not all that bad of a guy.

Even if I interpretted this completely wrong, as georgi10 said, it's a great song. I love John Mayer!

I've seen it rumored to be about Taylor Swift but why can it not be about either Jessica Simpson or Jennifer Aniston? I think it is more likely to be about them, if anything. When you think about some of the things he said in interview pieces, about the both of them, a line like "sucks to be honest, and it hurts to be real," makes more sense. And he certainly "harmed" those two more than Taylor Swift.

I don't mean to bring up Taylor Swift, but... does anyone think at least some parts are in response to Dear John??
Regardless, SUCH a good song, BEYOND excited for John's new album and I'm SO happy to hear he is back touring!!

It was just a thought. It seems like a John kind of thing to do after her song Dear John was written about him. Either way, lovely song!
