jewel - foolish games (demo) lyrics

[verse 1]
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

[pre+chorus]
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

[chorus]
these foolish games are tearing me, tеaring me, tearing me apart
and your thoughtlеss words are breaking my heart
you’re breaking my heart

[verse 2]
you’re always brilliant in the morning time
smoking your cigarettes, talking over coffee
your philosophies on art, your love baroque moved you
you loved mozart and you’d speak of your loved ones
as i clumsily strummed my guitar
you’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 have gone off track with you
[pre+chorus]
excuse me
think i’ve mistaken you for somebody else
somebody who gave a d+mn
somebody more like myself

[chorus]
these foolish games are tearing me, you’re tearing me
you’re tearing me apart, babe
your thoughtless words are breaking my heart
you’re breaking my heart

[verse 3]
and i showed you to the door
you were leaving again
but this time i knew it was for good
you know nothing of this world
or if you did you would see beauty in callouses
you would see honesty in sores
for you in all your wisdom you failed to see the beauty in subtlety
my ways went forever unseen by you
you would not talk so loud
’cause you know the wisdom of a stone
lies in it’s silence

[chorus]
these foolish games are tearing me, tearing me, tearing me apart, babe
your thoughtless words are breaking my heart
you’re breaking my heart
[outro]
you took your coat off
stood in the rain
you’re always crazy like that
