jewel - foolish games (piano demo) lyrics

[verse 1]
you took your coat off, 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
and you stood in my doorway, with nothing to say
besides some comment on the weather

[pre+chorus]
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]
and these foolish games are tearing me apart
and your thoughtless words arе breaking my heart
you’re brеaking my heart

[verse 2]
you’re always brilliant in the morning
smoking your cigarettes, 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
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]
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

[verse 3]
i showed you to the door, you’re leaving again
except this time, i knew it was for good
you and all your wisdom failed to see
the beauty in subtlety
the honesty you sought
and nothing of this world, for if you did
you’d see beauty in subtlety
my ways went forever unseen by you
and you wouldn’t talk so loud
’cause you would know the wisdom of a stone lies in its silence

[chorus]
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
[outro]
and i shook your coat off
you stood in the rain
you’re always crazy like that
