Elkie Brooks - No More the Fool lyrics

Just why I stayed around
When all I found was a heartache
I believed your every word
Didn't know the hurt and pain that you'd make

But why did it take so long
Alas, now I've seen the light
I found the heart to say

No more the fool who wait's around
Waitin' for you to bring me down
Those days are gone now

No more the nights layin' awake
Cryin' and waitin' for the day to break

No more the sound as my dreams
Fall and hit the ground
While I'm waitin' around no more the fool

You thought I'd break then you were wrong
That I wouldn't see what's goin' on
But I knew

Here I am i'm alive
And you'll see I'll survive without you

And I won't be the one who comes runnin'
It ain't like it used to be
It's your turn to run to me

No more the fool
All the nights I waited for you to call
I waited for a sign that you would stay
But it's so clear you didn't care at all

No more the fool

No more the fool who wait's around
No more the fool no more the clown
No more the fool

No more the sight no more the sound
And hit the ground no more the fool

No more the fool no more the fool
No more the sight no more the sound
No more the fool
