Why Did I Always Depend On You?
T. mcrea / r. smith / p. greenwood
Why did I always depend on you
When I knew that youd end
In anothers arms?
As a rule Im no fool
But it seems where loves concerned
Theres no rule for a fool
Who would let his heart be burned
And you intended to fool me too
Thats no lie
And you cant deny its true
From the start in my heart
I knew what youd do
Why did I depend on you?

Burning To Burned
You lied to me
I cant believe
That Ive been such a fool
I thought this time
I might find
Someone who would play by the rules
My mind said no
But my heart said go
And again Ive made the wrong turn
Now here I stand
My heart in your hands...
And Ive gone from burning to burned
Ah, youd think by now
Id know how
To keep this heart of mine safe
It goes to show
You just never know
Who can you trust these days
How could I make
The same mistake
But as far as Im concerned
Got myself to blame
Got to close to the flame
Now Ive gone from burning to burned
Everyone knows
The old saying goes
That a fool in love
Never learns
But I guess I forgot
cause the fire was too hot...
Now Ive gone from burning to burned
Oh I guess I forgot
cause the fire was too hot...
Now Ive gone from burning to burned

Wish I Didnt Know Now
(toby keith)
I never ask you where your goin,
I never ask you where youve been
Ive never called and checked your story,
When you stayed out with all your friends
Ive never tried to catch you lyin,
I didnt want to know the truth
Id rather go on lovin blind girl,
Than go on lovin without you
I wish I didnt know now what I didnt know then
I wish I could start this whole thing over again
Im not sayin its you,
You could never be true
I just dont wanna know how it ends
Youd still have my heart in the palm of your hands
Id still look like a fool in front of your friends
Yeah, I wish somehow I didnt know now what I didnt know then
Ive always said what I dont know
Couldnt hurt as bad as leavin you
Turns out I knew what I was thinkin,
It aint an easy thing to do,
Well I guess I should be goin
I sure found out too much to stay,
Please dont say your sorry
I might wait another day
I wish I didnt know now what I didnt know then
I wish I could start this whole thing over again
Im not sayin its you,
You could never be true
I just dont wanna know how it ends
Youd still have my heart in the palm of your hands
Id still look like a fool in front of your friends
Yeah, I wish somehow I didnt know now what I didnt know then
Youd still have my heart in the palm of your hand
Id still look like a fool in front of your friends
Yeah, I wish somehow I didnt know now what I didnt know then
Yeah, I wish somehow I didnt know now what I didnt know then

The Other Me
I know I was a crazy fool
For treating you the way I did
But something took hold of me
And I acted like a dustbin lid
I didnt give second though
To what the consequence might be
I really wouldnt be surprised
If you were trying to find another me
The other me would rather be the glad one
The other me would rather play the fool
I want to be the kind of me
That doesnt let you down as a rule
I know it doesnt take a lot
To have a little self-control
But every time that I forgot
Well I landed in another hole
But everytime you pull me out
I find it harder not to see
That we can build a better life
If I can try to find the other me
The other me would rather be the glad one
The other me would rather play the fool
I want to be the kind of me
That doesnt let you down as a rule
But if I ever hurt you
Well you know that its not real
Its no easy living by yourself
So imagine how I feel
I wish that I could take it back
Id like to make a different mood
And if you let me try again
Ill have a better attitude
Well I know that one and one make two
And thats what I want us to be
I really would appreciate it
If youd help me find the other me
The other me would rather be the glad one
The other me would rather play the fool
I want to be the kind of me
That doesnt let you down as a rule

I Know One (feat. Emmylou Harris)
When all your loves have ended
When all your friends have flown
Who'll be around to want you
When all your loves have gone
Only a fool would do it
After the way you've done
But how many fools would have you I know one
This fool keeps wonderin' why
He fell in love at all
But you might need this fool
Around in case you fall
After the party's over
And you've had your fill of fun
If you need a fool to forgive you I know one
You never know, you might be lonely
When all your loves have missed
It wouldn't hurt to keep an extra
Fool on your list.
After your heart's been broken
And you need a place to run
If you'll take a fool who loves you
I know one
I know one
I know one

Even A Fool Can See
One big happy family
Together the rest of our lives
As far as our friends were concerned
Everything seemed right
But thats when she told me
She said me it was time to move on
Just something that she kept inside
That told me the thrill was gone
And now I cant believe
I cant believe its over
Suddenly its plain to see
Shes leaving me and
Even a fool can see
Theres nothing left between us
I knew all along something was wrong
But I did my best to deny it
And now I cant go home
She wants to be alone so
Tell anyone who misses me that Im alright
Even a fool can see
There were times we had nothing
And somehow we laughed through it all
There are moments Ill never forget
And some I wouldnt care to recall
And still I cant believe
I cant believe its over
Suddenly its plain to see
Shes doesnt need me
Even a fool can see
Theres nothing left between us
I knew all along something was wrong
But I did my best to deny it
And now I cant go home
She wants to be alone so
Tell anyone who misses me that Im alright
Even a fool can see
Nothing more to talk about
Its over when its over
In the end you both stop trying
In the end its oh so sad
And you are crying
And now I cant go home
She wants to be alone so
Tell anyone who misses me that Im alright
Even a fool can see
Wont ya tell me that Im alright
Even a fool like me
Woo ooo Im alright
Even a fool can see
Whoa ooo ooo ooo

Get Yourself Another Fool
At last Ive awakened to see what youve done.
All I can do is pack up and run.
Now I know the rules. find yourself another fool.
You said that you loved me. I was yours to command.
Your kind of loving, my heart couldnt stand.
You played me for a fool. find yourself another fool.
And now, now that were through, you say you wished youd be true.
Oh, but deep down in my heart, I know our love could never grow.
And now, now that were through, you say you wished youd be true.
Oh, but deep down in my heart, I know our love will never grow.

Fool For You Anyway
Well I miss you honey
A little more every day
And I know if I kissed you
Youd be comin back home to stay
cause I know I was wrong
But how long do I have to pay?
You know you belong here beside me
Im a fool for you anyway
Im a fool for you anyway
cause Im a fool for you anyway
Well I cried for you so long
My river of tears ran dry
And I tried to be so strong
But grew weaker as time went by
You know your love left a mark on me
I dont think it will fade away
Ill sit here and wait til you come home
cause Im a fool for you anyway
Im a fool for you anyway
Fool for you anyway
You know your love left a mark on me, on me
I dont think it will fade away
Ill sit here and wait til you come home
cause Im a fool for you anyway
cause Im a fool for you anyway
Im a fool for you anyway
Fool for you anyway
Fool for you anyway

A fool for you anyway

Congratulations
(dave gibson, patti stephens)
Congratulations
You made a fool out of me
I hope youre happy
So now just let me be
I might be slow to lovers
But I catch on eventually
Congratulations
You made a fool out of me
Anticipation
You kept me waiting in line
Your situation did not allow you time
So Id sit home alone
Pretending someday youd be mine
Congratulations
You made a fool of me this time
Then he played it smart
You stole my heart
And tore my world apart
Guess you always knew
Id be the perfect fool
Congratulations baby
You win, I lose
Imagination
The way I dreamed it could be
Ooo, the sweetest sensation
Of how you made love to me
But now the visions gone
Its time to face reality
Congratulations
You made a fool out of me
Congratulations
You made a fool out of me

Left Me A Fool
Everybody loves you
And they want to know your story
You go riding out a mystery
Concealed in all your glory
But when it comes to flesh and bones
You remind me of shallot
Only made of shadows
Even though youre not
I remember how I spent
All my energy and time
With affected conversation
Trying to pry inside your mind
You are as beautiful as truth
And as empty as a shell
And I came to you one night
And it made me feel like hell
Oh to reach through all your surface
Just to find an empty pool
And to suffer all your pride
As I lay down by your side
And you swallowed up my heart
And left me a fool
Left me a fool
Everybody loves a hero
An image to create
The antithesis of everything
Inside ourselves we hate
But youd better close your eyes
When its time for them to die
Because youd hate to think the life
Youd built upon them was a lie
Oh to reach through all your surface
Just to find an empty pool
And to suffer all your pride
As I lay down by your side
And you swallowed up my heart
And left me a fool
Left me a fool
I resign myself to silence
I will never blow your cover
No one ever has to know
Who the hero took for lover
But it has come to mind as you blaze on
As brilliant as a star
How many youve left behind
How many casualties there are
Oh to reach through all your surface
Just to find an empty pool
And to suffer all your pride
As I lay down by your side
And you swallowed up my heart
And left me a fool
Left me a fool

Silly, Silly Fool
(kenneth gamble / leon huff)
Such a silly, silly, silly, silly fool am i
Oh, i, just a silly, silly, silly, silly fool am i
Hey, I should have never fallen
Back in love with you
Knowin how you get a pleasure
Breaking my poor heart in two
You made it sound so convincin
When you said
Im your woman, youre my man
Now I really need you
And I sit here a loser again
I guess Im just a silly, silly, silly, silly fool am i, oh i
Im such a silly, silly, silly, silly, fool am i, mmm
I should have never trusted
In my heart to lead the way
Now my mind is all busted
Thats a fools price to pay
You made it sound so convincin
When you said youd never, never go away
I should have never listened
To anything you had to say
Im such a silly, silly, silly, silly, silly, silly fool am i, yes I am
Im such a silly, silly, silly, silly fool am i, oh
Such a silly, silly, dilly, silly, dilly fool am i, oh yeah
Im such a silly, silly, silly, silly, silly fool am i, oh yes I am

Gone Long Gone
I thought for the rest of my life
Youd see me through it
Guess all along I knew it
Nothing mattered everything was all right
When you saw to it
Before I knew it you were gone long gone
You said you would always be there
Well I believed you
I was a fool to need you
Gave my love then I gave you my heart
And then you flew it
Before I knew it
You were gone long gone
Hard facing another day
Just crying the night away
Said more than I meant to say
When I knew that you were gone
I thought for the rest of my life
Youd see me through it
Yes all along I knew it
Didnt matter and it didnt seem right
And then you flew it
Before I knew it you were gone long gone.
You were gone long gone

I Knew You
I knew you before you knew
Who you wanted to be
Now I see the new you
She's a perfect stranger to me
Loves unkind, for I find
If only saw, the best of you
But my mind, not so blind
Showed my heart the rest of you
Scheming lies and alibis
That butter wouldn't melt disguise
With happy ever after eyes
That made a fool of me
I knew you before you knew
Who you wanted to be
Now I see the new you
She's a perfect stranger to me
She's a perfect stranger to me
Love is cruel It makes a fool
Of one who thought we had it all
All bridges burned, the lesson learned
You never really loved at all
Now you're gone, I'm on my own
Don't come around, don't even phone
Please leave a happy man alone
And we can both be free
I knew you before you knew
Who you wanted to be
Now I see the new you
She's a perfect stranger to me
She's a perfect stranger to me

Any Other Fool
(dianne warren)
I couldnt see paradise right before my eyes
When I had you here by my side
I didnt know that no-one else
Could ever take your place
But, now I know
I know that I should have stayed
And seeing you tonight
I only wonder why
I ever said goodbye
Any other fool would never walk away
Even a fool would still be there
Holding you
Any other fool would know I never
Should have let you go
I had it all as any fool could see
Any other fool but me, oh, ahh, oh
Anyone else never would have let the feeling die
Anyone else would have fought to keep it alive
If they were in my shoes
Theyd know the love we had
Was love too good to lose
Any other fool would never walk away
Even a fool would still be there
Holding you
Oh, any other fool would know
I never should have let you go
I had it all when you were loving me
I had it all as any fool could see
Any other fool but me, oh, oh, oh
I had it all when you were loving me
I had it all as any fool could see
Any other fool but me
Any other fool would never walk away
Even a fool would still be there
Holding you
Oh, any other fool would know
Never should have let you go
Had it all as any fool could see
Any other fool but me
Oh, oh, oh
Even a fool would still be there holding you
Any other fool would know
I never should have let you go

Fool Like You
I hear you breathing though youre so far away
Can you just go where youre going to
I couldnt give a damn or two about a fool like you
Thats true
Are you just too cool no youre just perfectly cold
And what goes around still comes around
I think its all summed up and down in a fool like you
Thats true
Today is just another day
You hold your ticket into nowhere
Its up to you if you will stay
And turn your day into a nightmare
You think you know it you think you know it all
But you dont even have a clue
And conrtol is still in view for a fool like you
Thats true
Is there a reason for the way that you are
Or does it just come natuarally
To have an idiosyncrasy and be a fool like you
Thats true
Youre hearing what you want to hear
Misunderstanding all you see
An attitude in all of us
Is it really you and me
Hes hiding residing deep within the crowd
A hand out hell pull you down
Youve been found guilty committed every crime
But still they say you must go free
Looks like haunted I will be by a fool like you fool like you
Thats true
By a fool like you by a fool like you
Looks like haunted I will be by a fool like you
Thats true
By a fool like you by a fool like you
Looks like you by a fool like you
Looks like haunted I will be by a fool like you
Thats true

Fool
(words & music: per gessle)
Published by hiphappy
I was alone
I told my mouth to shot up cos I was talking to myself
Like I always do when Im stuck
Well, I was crying
You could be crying too
I was screaming throungh the windown, I keep missing you
And the tears came down from the sky
And the rain feel hard on my eyes
Now you know what I look like, Im feeling like a fool
I lose on my own, Im going back to school
And I will pray, hallelujah, youll be breaking every rule
And come back to stay, Im feeling like a fool
I really tried so hard to design my life
Theres a big black void in head like its been cut by a knife
Every time your name comes around this stupidity follows me down
Now you know what I look like, Im feeling like a fool
I thought I could swim Im drowning in the pool
And I will pray, hallelujah, youll be breaking every rule
And consider to stay, Im feeling like a fool
Please, come back to stay, Im feeling like a fool
Im feeling like a fool in my heart
Im feeling like a fool

Matters Of The Heart
By michael mcdonald
Broken heart, bloodshot stare,
Signs of a fool who cared too much
Now shes gone and he cant remember
How to live without her touch
Hopin to die but surely livin to tell
cause when it comes to matters of the heart
There is nothing a fool wont get used to
After all the whiskey and wisdom he could swallow
He thought it was time to start loving again
So he found someone and prayed his heart would follow
But he could hardly do more than pretend
And though she knew in her heart that his love was lie
When it comes to matters of the heart
There is nothing a fool wont get used to
Well, of all the things love teaches
Of all the ways that it opens our eyes
No more profound than the lesson he learned
The day she walked out of his life
When the road gets most narrow
Its then he remembers her smile
And he sees these words forming on her lips
Across a river of tears he once cried
cause when it comes to matters of the heart
There is nothing a fool wont get used to
No there is nothing a fool wont get used to

When all your friends have flown
Wholl be around to want you
When all your loves have gone
Only a fool would do it
After the way youve done
But how many fools would have you I know one
This fool keeps wonderin why
He fell in love at all
But you might need this fool
Around in case you fall
After the partys over
And youve had your fill of fun
If you need a fool to forgive you I know one

When all your loves have missed

And you need a place to run
If youll take a fool who loves you

Her Best Friend
He left a message on her voicemail
She saved it and she listens
She listens and burns.
She is a fool
Such a fool!
An innocent knee
Pressed against hers
Sets her alight where they touch
She is a fool
Such a fool
She listens to his beautiful words,
And lets them flow to the middle of her heart,
As she stares at the base of his throat.
She is a fool,
Such a fool
As soon as he leaves her
She feels a universe of hidden sentiments
Descend upon her tongue
She is a fool,
Because...because....
She shares him with so many just like her,
And she's the easy target amongst them all.
Alas...he'll have her gentle heart forever,
Because she is a fool
Only a fool.
