unknown

Hey, doesn't it still look easy as it did to you
Hey, wasn't it true, after all
I couldn't help myself, girl
And i can't blame you
The bigger the fool, the harder the fall


Living on old illusions, and some make believe
That mattered to me, most of all
Closing my eyes to changes i've refused to see
The bigger the fool, the harder the fall


Somewhere in your future, on the far side of your world
You might read my writing on the wall
And think of the easy dreamer who believed in you
The bigger the fool, the harder the fall.

If someday you wake up in a world that's turned on you
And nobody answers when you call
Hey, think of the easy dreamer who believes in you
The bigger the fool, the harder the fall

Think of the crazy dreamer who believes in you
The bigger the fool, the harder the fall.

Here's a song about a good 'ole girl with a big 'ole heart that got
Broke 'cause she was in love with
Some son of a bitch who didn't love her back enough ...

Slowly she sank to her knees on the floor
Cursin' the freedom she'd won
>from the torture she vowed not to take anymore
And the victim she'd almost become

Chorus:
For a lady who'd learned all there is about leaving
She sure took a long time to go
But he loved her right down to her socks and no further
And her feet were the last ones to know.

You see, the problem is, sometimes when you take a good stiff shot to
The
Heart, it kinda stuns you. it takes a while for the message to get down
To your feet to get you out of trouble. so you stand there like some
Old
Fighter taking punishment you don't even know you're takin'. but one
Day, you wake up and look down at your feet and find they're just
Walking
You away from me.

Chorus:
For a lady who'd learned all there is about leaving
She sure picked a hard way to go
But he loved her right down to her socks, and no further
And her feet were the last ones to know.

The knew the moment their eyes came together
They'd never need to explain
He was a bandit behind his behavior
She was precisely the same
Laughing and dancing those gay cabralleros
They looked so wild and so free
She likes him a little light on the loafers
But bless his heart, so does he .

Chorus:
And he covers for her and she covers for him
If it's wild and they want to they will
But the dangers are real and the chances are slim
And there ain't nothing cheap but the thrill
In the badlands of beverly hills.

He had a mustache that made him look macho
And she wore a mole on her cheek
Making the run around rodeo avenue
Dancing boutique to boutique
And the truth is a question with too many answers
And so hard to face on your own
Beauty is only as deep as the skin
Ugly goes clear to the bone.

Chorus:
And he covers for her and she covers for him
If it's wild and they want to they will
But the dangers are real and the chances are slim
And there ain't nothing cheap but the thrill
In the badlands of beverly hills.

So many people got so many lines
They've all been tried and it's true
They've all got so many reasons for changin' your mind
And there ain't none of 'em knew
But there's just so little distance between me and you
I think we're two of a kind
We won't do nothin' you don't wanna do
And i won't tell you no lies

Chorus:
So tell me, how do you feel about foolin' around
Down from your head to your toes
Ain't nothin' realer than right here and now
If that's as far as it goes

And it goes-and it goes-and it goes

Hey, you'll never miss nothin' you've never known
You'll never know 'til you try
Hey, we can take it or leave it alone
But we got so little time

Chorus:
So tell me, how do you feel about foolin' around
Down from your head to your toes
Ain't nothin' realer than right here and now
If that's as far as it goes.

This could be our last good night together
We may never pass this way again.
Just let me enjoy it 'til it's over, or forever
Please don't tell me how the story ends.

See the way our shadows come together
Softer than your fingers on my skin
Someday these may be all we remember of each other
Please don't tell me how the story ends.

Never's just the echo of forever
Lonesome as a love that might have been.
Let me go on lovin' and believin' 'til it's over
Please don't tell me how the story ends.

You ask me if i'm happy now
That's good as any joke i've heard
It seems that since i've seen you last
I done forgot the meaning of the words
If happiness is empty rooms
And drinkin' in the afternoon
Well i suppose i'm happy as a clam
But if it's got a thing to do
With smilin' of forgettin' you
Well i don't guess that i could say i am


Chorus:
Did you ever see a down and outer waking up alone
Without a blanket on to keep him from the dew
When the water from the weeds has soaked the paper
He's been puttin' in his shoes to keep the ground from comin' through
And his future feels as empty as the pocket in his pants
Because he's never seen a single dream come true
That's the way that i've been feelin' since the day i started falling
>from the bottle to the bottom stool by stool
Learnin' hard to live with losin' you

You wonder if i'm better off
With freedom now to do the things i choose
With all my times my own and
I got nothin' left but sleepin' time to lose
There's no one here to carry on
If i stay out the whole night long
Or give a tankerous damn if i don't call
I'm livin' like i wanted to
And doin' things i wanna do
And nothin' means a thing to me at all


Chorus:
Did you ever see a down and outer waking up alone
Without a blanket on to keep him from the dew
When the water from the weeds soaked the paper
He's been puttin' in his shoes to keep the ground from comin' through
And his future feels as empty as the pocket in his pants
Because he's never seen a single dream come true
That's the way that i've been feelin' since the day i started falling
>from the bottle to the bottom stool by stool
Learnin' hard to live with losin' you

I know you know i'm sorry
And you know that i feel the same
We've grown too lonesome together (oh, yes we have)
And all that we share is the blame.

Let's take a chance while there's something to say
Oh darling, don't throw it away
We know that we've both got so much to lose
And the rest of our lifetime to pay

We could be good to each other (yes, we could)
Better than we've ever been
Oh, darlin' we're starting all over
It's all over, all over again

I know, we could be good to each other (yes, we could)
Better than we've ever been
Oh, darlin', we're starting all over
It's all over, all over again.
It's all over, all over again.
