Foolish Games

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

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

Your philosophies on art, Baroque moved you

You loved Mozart

And you'd speak of your loved ones

As I clumsily strummed my guitar



Excuse me, think I've mistaken you for somebody else

Somebody who gave a damn

Somebody more like myself



And 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 and stood in the rain

You were always crazy like that
