The Fool Is Me

Tina Cousins

I guess the fool is me, I just couldn't see

What you had in mind

i wear a cloak of shame, I can't explain

Why I believed your lies

You may have looked like an angel, enough for me

But the devil gave you your words

'Cos you took all I gave you

Took it with ease

And left me with your curse



You're a mellownoma and you burn So sweetly, so deeply

you hurt

Why are people never who they seem

So sweetly, so cheaply, the fool is me



My judgement fails, or so it seems

You burned me to the bone

Thought that was safe, now I'm a hopeless case

Hopelessy alone

You may have looked like an angel, enough for me

But the devil gave you your words

'Cos you took all I gave you

Took it with ease

And left me with your curse



You're a mellownoma and you burn

So sweetly, so deeply you hurt

Why are people never who they seem

So sweetly, so cheaply, the fool is me
