It's a lesson to be learned
I shouldn't cry but I do, like an ordinary fool
Only a fool, that same old story
Ends alone at my front door
How many times have I mistaken
When his ordinary dreams fall through
Good looks and laughs for the blues?
And how many times have I mistaken
Seems I was born for the part
When a road I walked before
When his ordinary dreams fall through
I shouldn't cry but I do, like an ordinary fool
Good looks and laughs for bad news?
I shouldn't cry but I do, like an ordinary fool
Ends alone at my front door
And a page I should have turned
When a road I walked before
