foolish games (single version)

jewel

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

and. these 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. well

excuse me

guess i've mistaken you for somebody else

somebody who gave a damn

somebody more like myself. these 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 heart. you took your coat off

stood in the rain

you're always crazy like that.
