Foolish lyrics
Letra de Foolish Games, canción número cuatro del álbum Pieces of You (1995).
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 witch,
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...
&CHORUS&
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 cofee.
You philosophies on art, Baroque moved you.
You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved ones,
as I clumsily strummed my guitar.
You'd teach me of honest things,
things that were daring, things that were clean.
Things that knew what an honest dollar did mean.
I hid my soiled hands behind my back.
Somewhere along the line, I must've gone,
off track with you.
Well excuse me, guess i've mistaken you for somebody else,
somebody who gave a damn,
somebody more like myself.
&CHORUS 2&
You took your coat off,
stood in the rain,
you're always crazy like that.
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 witch,
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...
&CHORUS&
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 cofee.
You philosophies on art, Baroque moved you.
You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved ones,
as I clumsily strummed my guitar.
You'd teach me of honest things,
things that were daring, things that were clean.
Things that knew what an honest dollar did mean.
I hid my soiled hands behind my back.
Somewhere along the line, I must've gone,
off track with you.
Well excuse me, guess i've mistaken you for somebody else,
somebody who gave a damn,
somebody more like myself.
&CHORUS 2&
You took your coat off,
stood in the rain,
you're always crazy like that.

For Jewel...
Jewel es la protagonista del blog que empiezo hoy. Jewel Kilcher nació el 23 de mayo de 1974 en Payson, Utah, Estados Unidos, pero pasó gran parte de su niñez en Alaska, viviendo con su padre. Jewel es una gran cantautora, escritora y filántropa, pero sobretodo es una persona con una magia especial. No la conozco, no la he tenido cerca nunca y no he estado en sus conciertos. Y hace poco que ha entrado en mi mundo, para cautivarme con sus canciones... pero me basta. Es suficiente para que me atrape esta locua, y crear un mundo para Jewel, un mundo desde el cariño y el agredicimiento por todo lo que descubro con sus canciones y sobre ella. Bienvenid@ a este mundo, si quieres compartir con Jewel o descubrirla, como voy haciendo yo, e iré haciéndolo más de la mano de esta puerta a una gran artista llamada Jewel Kilcher...
