Ordinary Fool Lyrics - Cheater's Game - Kelly Willis & Bruce Robison

You're a fool 

You gave him up your heart 

and he tore it all apart 

Left with someone new 

There's a way 

You know he's leaving love 

if his lips are breathing then you know 

You'll soon be blue 

And there's nothing you can do 

And it's cruel 

How your life can change 

How he'll throw you down like a stick on the ground 

A fool for anyone to see 

I know it ain't cool 

How your life can change 

And no more than an ordinarily 

Cause that fool would ordinarily be me 

You were called 

Try to change his mind 

If there's some way you can find 

You'll find he's not alone 

And it drags you down 

Like a stony crown 

Like you're the captain of the clowns in his show 

And it hurts how much I know 

But it's cruel 

How your life can change 

How he'll throw you down like a stick on the ground 

A fool for anyone to see 

I know it ain't cool 

How your life can change 

And no more than an ordinarily 

Cause that fool would ordinarily be me 

Don't cry 

Even if you don't cry 

Even if you don't cry 

Even if you do 

You're a fool 

I'm a fool 

I gave him up my heart 

And he tore it all apart 

Put me down for you 

There were nights I'd pray 

I could make you pay 

But in my tangled mind 

I always knew 

What would that do? 

Cause it's cruel 

How your life can change 

How he'll throw you down like a stick on the ground 

A fool for anyone to see 

I know it ain't cool 

How your life can change 

And no more than I'd ordinarily 

Cause that fool would ordinarily be me
