Only Fools

You never told me that your gun was loaded
I couldn't see your cards were marked
I never knew until my world exploded
You were the flame there in the dark, whoa

Just using me, you had your way
Until my soul was bare
It's hard to see why I should dream
That you'd care

Only fools would take the heartache
Only fools could feel the pain
Only fools stay in the water
Till the storms come back again
Only fools could stand the torture
Only fools could be so blind
I was heading for the border
But was the fool you left behind
Yeah, yeah

I didn't know you had your mines all planted
I couldn't see the danger signs
Maybe I took a little much for granted
I never read between the lines, whoa

The wire's high, the nets are gone
And I'm just standing there
It's hard to see why I should dream
That you'd care

Only fools would take the heartache
Only fools could feel the pain
Only fools stay in the water
Till the storms come back again
Only fools could stand the torture
Only fools could be so blind
I was heading for the border
But was the fool you left behind

Just using me, you had your way
Until my soul was bare
It's hard to see why I should dream
That you'd care

Only fools would take the heartache
Only fools could feel the pain
Only fools stay in the water
Till the storms come back again
Only fools could stand the torture
Only fools could be so blind
I was heading for the border
But was the fool you left behind

Only fools would take the heartache
Only fools could feel the pain
Only fools stay in the water
Till the storms come back again
