Laura Branigan - Foolish Lullaby lyrics

rate me

(Jack White/Mark Spiro)

You always run to me

Whenever she leaves you

We trade philosophy

But nothing can free you

Too many poison arrows hit

The heart you've try to hide

Can't you say goodbye to this foolish lullaby?

Still you talk as if

She didn't hurt you

But I see what she did

And you see the virtue

You refuse to hear the words

That lie behind your eyes

Can't you say goodbye to this foolish lullaby?

If you are so sure that she's the one

Why are you lying here with me?

Did it ever cross your mind at all

Of how this feels to me?

I'll never know just what you see in her

I don't even want to try

I guess the both of us sing a foolish lullaby

So we'll wear the goodbye look

Collecting excuses

For all the time it took

To hide the abuses

The thorns around the roses left

Their mark below our eyes

Can't we say goodbye to this foolish lullaby?

If you are so sure that she's the one

Why are you lying here with me?

Did it ever cross your mind at all

Of how this feels to me?

I'll never know just what you see in her

I don't even want to try

I guess the both of us sing a foolish lullaby
