Jewel – Foolish games
You took your coat off, stood in the rain
You’re always crazy like that And I watched from my window Always felt I was outside looking in on youYou’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 weatherIn case you failed to notice, in case you failed to see
This is my heart bleedin’ before you, this is me down on my kneesThese foolish games are tearing me apart
And your thoughtless words are breakin’ my heart You’re breaking my heartYou’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 guitarYou’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 youExcuse me, think I’ve mistaken you for somebody else
Somebody who gave a damn, somebody more like myselfThese foolish games are tearing me
You’re tearing me, you’re tearing me apart And your thoughtless words are breaking my heart You’re breaking my heartYou took your coat off, stood in the rain
You’re always crazy like that
