That Fool Was Me by Barry Adamson Lyrics

Sometimes I feel like a newborn babe
Without a mama's arms to hold him tightly
Chilled to the bone
And knowing there'll
Never be no place I can call my own
And you came my way
Like a summer's day
You warm the very cockles of my soul
Squeaky and clean
But totally blind to what makes a man stand tall

Please don't need me to be untrue
`cause when you do I feel blue
Please don't feed me the way you do
`cause, mama, I'll be bigger than you
Everybody get out my way
I got something to say
You take your time and you blow my mind
There's something about you, baby
And they all agree
There I go, I sing it sweet and low
Only a fool would leave you
And that fool was me
In every hope there's a heartache baby
Rising from the broken mind that can't let go
But then there's a rise
Potentially
Someone that I would give until I die
What can you do? The damage is done
Sticking out like a sore thumb
It's time to move on
When I take the train whose destination
Is dysfunction junction

Please don't need me to be untrue
`cause when you do I feel blue
Please don't feed me the way you do
`cause, mama, I'll be bigger than you
Everybody get out my way
I got something to say
You take your time and you blow my mind
There's something about you, baby
And they all agree
But there I go, I sing it sweet and low
Only a fool would leave you
And that fool was me

That fool was me
We're finally free
