Vanessa Carlton — Fools Like Me

[Verse 1] Beware the danger it lurks for those who get swept away The dreamers get punished most by the truth they say It's all in the little ways one reveals their Love's gone away, love's gone away [Verse 2] When my hand was in you hand, my heart was pure And 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 [Chorus 1] Cause fools like me Oh, we love blindly And the cracks don't count It's gotta break in front of me [Verse 3] Now I recall that time at the cafe 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 [Chorus 2] With fools like me Oh, we love blindly And the cracks don't count It's gotta break in front of me [Bridge] And tick-tock the time, distant look grows in your eyes Fools never ask, afraid what lurks in your mind I always knew, somehow always knew I always knew the truth [Chorus 3] 'Cause fools like me Oh, we never see Cause the cracks don't count Its gotta break in front of me [Post-Chorus] And it's breaking It's breaking It's breaking It's gotta break for me to see [Outro] At least I can say I was not afraid I loved you all the way I'd pick the fool any day
