Jewel – Foolish games

Jewel – Foolish games

 

 

You took your coat off, stood in the rainYou’re always crazy like thatAnd I watched from my windowAlways felt I was outside looking in on you
You’re always the mysterious one withDark eyes and careless hairYou were fashionably sensitiveBut too cool to careYou stood in my doorway, with nothing to sayBesides some comment on the weather
In case you failed to notice, in case you failed to seeThis is my heart bleedin’ before you, this is me down on my knees
These foolish games are tearing me apartAnd your thoughtless words are breakin’ my heartYou’re breaking my heart
You’re always brilliant in the morningSmoking your cigarettes and talking over coffeeYour philosophies on art, Baroque moved youYou loved Mozart and you’d speak of your loved onesAs I clumsily strummed my guitar
You’d teach me of honest thingsThings that were daring, things that were cleanThings that knew what an honest dollar did meanI hid my soiled hands behind my backSomewhere along the line, I must’ve gone off track with you
Excuse me, think I’ve mistaken you for somebody elseSomebody who gave a damn, somebody more like myself
These foolish games are tearing meYou’re tearing me, you’re tearing me apartAnd your thoughtless words are breaking my heartYou’re breaking my heart
You took your coat off, stood in the rainYou’re always crazy like that
