Foolish games

You took your coat off and stood in the rain,
You were 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 fashionably sensitive, but too cool to care.
You stood in my doorway, with nothing to say
Beside some comment on the weather.
 
Well in case you failed to notice,
In case you failed to see,
This is my heart bleeding before you,
This sets me down on my knees...
 
[Chorus]
These foolish games are tearing me apart
And your thoughtless words are breaking my heart
You're breaking my heart.
 
You're always brilliant in the morning,
Smoking your cigarettes, and talking over coffee.
You philosophies on art, Baroque moved you,
You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved ones,
As I clumsily strummed my guitar.
 
Well excuse me,
Guess I've mistaken you for somebody else,
Somebody who gave a damn,
Somebody more like myself...
 
[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.
 
You took your coat off and stood in the rain,
You were always crazy like that.
