a sentimental song for me.. i've always love Jewel since her "you were meant for me" song.. i have planned to do the cover but when i listened to "foolish games", my mind changed.. i know, tis is a hard song to cover for a guitar, i thought for it as a challenge.. so, i did dare myself a bit..hihi.. it felt good to have done it though.
p.s.
sorry bout some "lyrical" errors... :)
FOOLISH GAMES
You took your coat off, and stood in the rain
You were always crazy like that
And I watched from my window
always felt I was outside looking in on you
You were always the mysterious one
with dark eyes and careless hair
You were fashionably sensitive, but too cool to care
You stood in my doorway, with nothing to say
besides some comment on the weather
Well in case you failed to notice
In case you failed to see
this is my heart bleeding before you
this is me down on my knees
These foolish games are tearing me apart
And your thoughtless words are breaking my heart
You're breaking my heart
You were always brilliant in the morning
Smoking your cigarettes, and talking over coffee
Your philosophies on art, Baroque moved you
You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved ones
As I clumsily strummed my guitar
Well excuse me, guess I've mistakened you for somebody else
somebody who gave a damn
somebody more like myself
These foolish games are tearing me
Tearing me, tearing me apart
And your thoughtless words are breaking my heart
You're breaking my heart
You took your coat off and stood in the rain
you were always crazy like that
