Anne Haigis Foolish Games Lyrics

Foolish Games Lyrics

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 were always the mysterious one
with

                                              Dark eyes and careless hair you
were

                                             Fashionable sensitive but too cool
to care



                                         Then you stood in my doorway with
nothing to say

                                              Beside some comment on the
weather

                                        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



                                             These foolish games are tearing me
apart

                                         And your thoughtless words are
breaking my heart



                                                 You'd teach me of honest
things

                                          Things that were daring, things that
were clean

                                                 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

                                              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 apart

                                         And your thoughtless words are
breaking ma heart
