Foolish

You took your coat off and stood in the rain,
You were always crazy like that
And I watched from my window,
always felt I was outside looking in on you
You were always the mysterious one
with dark eyes and careless hair,
You were fashionably sensitive, but too cool to care
Then 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 were always brilliant in the morning
Smoking your cigarettes and talking over coffee
You philosophies on art, Baroque moved you,
You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved ones
As I clumsily strummed my guitar
When Excuse me, think I've mistaken you for somebody else
Somebody who gave a damn,
Somebody more like myself
And these foolish games are
you tearing me, you tearing me
you tearing me apart
and you thoughtless words are breaking my heart
You're breaking my heart
You took off your coat and stood in the rain
you were always crazy like that
