Foolish Games
You took your coat off
-
- You took your coat off
- and stood in the rain,
- You're always crazy like that.
- And I watched from my window,
- Always felt I was outside looking in on you.
- You're always the mysterious one with
- Dark eyes and careless hair,
- You were fashionably sensitive
- But too cool to care.
- You stood in my doorway,
- with nothing to say
- Besides some comment on the weather.
- Well in case you failed to notice,
- In case you failed to see,
- This is my heart bleeding before you,
- This is me down on my knees,
- foolish games are tearing me apart,
- And your thoughtless words
- are breaking my heart
- You're breaking my heart
- You're always brilliant in the morning,
- Smoking your cigarettes
- and talking over coffee.
- Your philosophies on art,
- Baroque moved you.
- You loved Mozart
- and you'd speak of your loved ones
- As I clumsily strummed my guitar.
- You'd teach me of honest things,
- Things that were daring,
- things that were clean.
- Things that knew
- what an honest dollar did mean.
- I hid my soiled hands behind my back.
- Somewhere along the line,
- I must've gone
- Off track with you.
- Well, excuse me,
- guess I've mistaken you for somebody else,
- Somebody who gave a damn,
- Somebody more like myself.
- And these foolish games
- are tearing me,
- Your tearing me,
- your tearing me apart
- And your thoughtless words
- are breaking my heart
- You're breaking my heart.
- And you took your coat off,
- stood in the rain,
- You're always crazy like that
