"Foolish Games"
You took your coat off and stood in the rain,
You're always crazy like that.
And I watched from my window,
Always felt I was outside looking in on you.
You're 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, and...
These foolish games are tearing me apart,
And your thoughtless words are breaking my heart.
You're breaking my heart.
You're always brilliant in the morning,
Smoking your cigarettes and talking over coffee....
Well, excuse me, guess I've mistaken you for somebody else,
Somebody who gave a damn,
Somebody more like myself.
You took your coat off,
Stood in the rain,
You're always crazy like that.
"You Were Meant For Me"
I called my momma, she was out for a walk
Consoled a cup of coffee but it didn't wanna talk
So I picked up a paper, it was more bad news
More hearts being broken or people being used
Put on my coat in the pouring rain
I saw a movie it just wasn't the same
'Cause it was happy and I was sad
It made me miss you oh so bad 'cause
Dreams last so long
Even after you're gone
I know you love me
And soon you will see
You were meant for me
And I was meant for you.
I go about my business, I'm doin fine
Besides what would I say if I had you on the line
Same old story, not much to say
Hearts are broken, everyday.
I heard "You Were Meant For Me" yesterday as I was rushing home to get ready for graduation. The song just hit me, it was so surreal like the lyrics playing a movie of my life in my mind. Not all of it is about me & my life, but it just touched me the way music can. I know that sounds crazy but it was amazing. I used to LOVE that song. It brought back old memories and then driving down the road I saw Erin Watson with her graduation cap on, I started crying thinking about new memories that will be made & fantasies that won't happen. In like 5th grade, I sang & recorded that song in Nashville in one of those stores that makes a tape for you. I used to hate the way it sounded so I smashed the tape later on. haha, but thats my spill.
