lyrics

9. Fool Myself
Standing in your shadow
Waiting for the sun to shine,
Just isn’t my idea of having a real good time.
Got to get myself together,
Got to try and toe the line.
Got to turn over a brand new leaf,
And try and make believe I’m feeling fine.
Got to try and fool myself,
Before you make a fool out of me.

Now you’ve got a brand new girlfriend,
You don’t want me hanging around.
I can’t even visit you,
I think I may as well leave town.
Got a funny feeling,
This affair’s run me into the ground.

Well the other day I saw you,
Walking down the street.
I was standing at the bus stop,
Trying to be discreet.
You looked the other way,
You didn’t want her to see me.
I watched you walk on by,
I didn’t even cry.
But I could tell that I was breaking,
By the way my heart was aching, oo eeh.

There’s only one way out of this,
Got to try and break your hold on me.
I’m a steady loving woman,
Worth my weight in gold you see.
But I think I have to face
Slow and steady’s going to lose this race.

Yes I think I have to face,
Slow and steady’s going to lose this race.
Got to try and fool myself,
Before you make a fool out of me.
Got to try and fool myself,
Before you make a fool out of me.
