You took your coat off and stood in the rain.
You're always crazy like that.
I watched from my window, always felt I was outside
looking in on you.
You were always the mysterious one with
dark eyes and careless hair you were
fashionably sensitive but too cool to care.
You stood in my doorway, you got nothin 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.
Breaking my heart...
You're always brilliant in the morning
You're smoking your cigarettes
And talking over coffee.
Your philosophies on art, Baroque moved you, you loved Mozart.
And you speak of your loved ones
as I clumsily strum my guitar.
Well excuse me, guess I've mistaken you for somebody else.
Somebody who gave a damn, somebody more like myself.
And these foolish games are tearing me, tearing me, tearing me apart.
And your thoughtless words are breaking my heart...
You're breaking my heart.
You took your coat off and stood in the rain.
You're always crazy like that.

vocal This song makes me think of my long-time crush who is just killing herself with an asshole boyfriend and all the while I am there to support her. Relate it to myself with her and her with the guy. It makes me cry...

vocal x0michelle0x i'm sorry but i can't see how this song reminds "paint it black"(not painted black!) well i like it but it's sad. it's a brilliant song... but in this sight there aren't all the lyrics!! after the line "i clumsily strum my guitar" it goes:"you'd teach me of honest things
things that were daring,things that were clean
things that knew what an honest dollar did mean
well i hid my soiled hands behind my back
somewhere along the line i must've gone off track with you.."
and then is the second chorus!
This song is one of her greatest.
I think she has beautiful vocals, my favourite female artist.
Well incase you failed to notice, incase you fail to see, this is my heart bleeding before you, this is me down on my knees. these foolish game are tearing me apart.
