That Fool Was Me Songtext
von Barry Adamson

Sometimes I feel like a newborn babe
Without a mama′s arms to hold him tightly,
Chilled to the bone
And knowing there'll
Never be no place I can call my own
And you came my way.
Like a summer′s day
You warm the very cockles of my soul.
Squeaky and clean
But totally blind to what makes a man stand tall.


Please don't need me to be untrue
'Cause when you do I feel blue.
Please don′t feed me the way you do
′Cause, mama, I'll be bigger than you.
Everybody get out my way,
I got something to say.
You take your time and you blow my mind.
There′s something about you, baby,
And they all agree.
There I go, I sing it sweet and low,
Only a fool would leave you
And that fool was me.

In every hope there's a heartache baby
Rising from the broken mind that can′t let go,
But then there's a rise,
Potentially
Someone that I would give until I die.
What can you do? The damage is done,
Sticking out like a sore thumb.
It′s time to move on
When I take the train whose destination
Is dysfunction junction.


Please don't need me to be untrue
'Cause when you do I feel blue.
Please don′t feed me the way you do
′Cause, mama, I'll be bigger than you.
Everybody get out my way,
I got something to say.
You take your time and you blow my mind.
There′s something about you, baby,
And they all agree.
But there I go, I sing it sweet and low,
Only a fool would leave you
And that fool was me.

That fool was me.
We're finally free.
