Vanessa Carlton - Fools Like Me lyrics

rate me

Beware the danger it lurks for those who get swept away

The dreamers get punished most by truth

They say it's all in a little ways

One reveals their love's gone away,

Love's gone away

When my hand was in your hand

My heart was pure

Now I see a different man

Rewriting memories

The dogs run down the beach

And all I'm left with

Is sand in my shoes,

Sand in my shoes

Fools like me

We love blindly

And the cracks don't count

It's gotta break in front of me

Now I recall that time at the caf©,

The thunderstorm outside

Words you could never say,

They hold the loudest tones

You say you'll write

But it's ink on a page,

Just ink on a page

Fools like me

Oh we love blindly

And the cracks don't count

It's gotta break in front of me

Tic toc the time

Distant look grows in your eye

But fools never ask

Afraid of what lurks in your mind

I always knew, somehow, always knew

I always knew the truth

Fools like me

Oh we never see

Cause the cracks don't count

It's gotta break in front of me

And it's breakin',

It's breakin',

It's breakin'

It's gotta break for me to see

At least I can say

I was not afraid

I loved you all the way

I'd pick the fool any day
