Foolish Games................................ ~Rika~

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're 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
Besides 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 is me down on my knees

And these foolish games
Are tearing me apart
And your thoughtless words
Are breaking my heart

Breaking my heart..

You're always brilliant in the morning
Smoking your cigarettes
And talking over coffee

Your 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

And 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're always crazy like that..
