(S. Van Zandt)



Like the child who's soul's a flame that loves to burn

I'm just the kind of guy who never learns 

I guess you had to go 

Why was I the last to know?



I played the fool, girl 

I did just what you expected 

I played the fool 

And you're making it so hard to leave this time 



I see so much when I look in your eyes 

I just can't help myself - I'm hypnotized 

It's my turn to walk away 

But, baby, I'll be back someday 



I played the fool, girl 

I did just what you expected 

I played the fool 

And you're making it so hard to leave this time 



It's my turn to walk away 

But baby I'll be back someday 

I played the fool, girl 

I did just what you expected 

I played the fool, girl

And you're making it so hard to leave this time



It's my turn to walk away 

But baby I'll be back someday 

I played the fool, girl 

I did just what you expected 

I played the fool
