What fools will do for love
Wear their emotions on their sleeves
And reveal themselves to soon
What did I do for love
But open up my heart and dive right in
Did I show myself too soon?
But I know that you wanted me
As much as I want you
And I know that you saw in me
Something that you see in few
And you ran from experience
Closed your eyes to someone new
When your courage gave
And you slipped away
How easily I fall
I asked you to drop me to my knees
And with me have your way
Why does it always seem
That your the one whose holding all the cards
And against my heart you play?
But I know that you wanted me
As much as I want you
And I know that you saw in me
Something that you see in few
And you ran from experience
Closed your eyes to someone new
When your courage gave
And you slipped away
How sweet the blindness is
When one grows convinced that he is loved
And doesn't walk alone
Closed eyes will hide the roads
That lead a man deep down into the fire
Where his ignorance is shown
But I know that you wanted me
As much as I want you
And I know that you saw in me
Something that you see in few
And you ran from experience
Closed your eyes to someone new
When your courage gave
And you slipped away
