about

Common Fool is a song about hindsight in a relationship. You can see the problems that existed within the relationship, only after it is over.

lyrics

Back a while ago I thought you were an angel
But then I noticed I could never be more wrong as hell
Wasted tears, wasted moments, never being true
That’s what I think of you

You said you love me, that’s what you said, that’s what you said
And I believed you like the common fool I was back then
I get these memories I don’t really want to see again
Those remember when’s

Are you worth my time
Are you worth my time
Roller coaster ride to nowhere
They say you are sublime
They say you are sublime
When I go through your mind
Guess I had it wrong
Guess I had it wrong

Thinking all about those times I had been with you
No wonder I had been so beaten down black and blue
Blurry vision never stopped me from loving you
‘Til I learned the cause was you

I don’t know what you’ve been told
But you don’t seem to care
Lost between you and yourself
You won’t go anywhere
I don’t know what I’ve been hanging onto
I guess this is goodbye
Goodbye

‘Cuz you ain’t worth my time
No you ain’t worth my time
Roller coaster ride to nowhere
They said you were sublime
They said you were sublime
When I went through your mind
Guess I had it wrong
Had it wrong

I guess I had it wrong
Guess I had it wrong
