Ordinary Fool

Only a fool
Like fools before me
I always think with my heart
Only a fool
That same old story
Seems I was born for the part

It's a lesson that I've learned
And a page I should have turned
And I shouldn't cry, but I do
Like an ordinary fool
When his ordinary dreams fall through

How many times have I mistaken
Good looks and laughs for bad news?
How many times have I mistaken
Love songs and laughs for the blues?

When a road I've walked before
Ends alone at my front door
I shoudn't cry, but I do
Like an ordinary fool
When his ordinary dreams fall through

It's a lesson that I've learned
And a page I should have turned
And I shouldn't cry, but I do
Like an ordinary fool
When his ordinary dreams fall through
