It seems that my gullibility has swept me off my feet And now I lay face down on the wooden floor I try to regain my stance But every time I try I seem to fall further down I watch you walk so gracefully Could you teach me how? Then I'll dance for you And the world will wash away Sometime, maybe, but not today I'm going to be a fool for you Do you laugh at the foolish things I do Am I acting my age or maybe 15 years younger? I'm calling for you, screaming But I can't hear my voice at all I'm reaching for you, desperately But my arms just won't reach I'm waiting for you to notice And trying not to fall asleep SongtexteI'm going to be a fool for you And try helplessly to mimic the things you do I'm going to act foolish for you And watch you laugh at me I'm going to climb your steps and fall I'm going to be the one you saw Trip and land face down on the hardwood floor Begging that there won't be anymore I'm going to be a fool for you I'm going to let you laugh at the things I do I'm going to wait and try to keep my eyes Watching for your genuine smile I'm running to you, not fast enough Hoping that you might notice me Or the dust storms I kick up behind and get sucked into You turn then and don't see me I'm going to be a fool for you Watch as you laugh at the things I do Maybe your smile will heal the wounds I Cut deep into myself I'm waiting for you to notice me You always seem to look up when I look down You smile but when I look you frown And I always think your thinking what your not It never makes sense and I get so confused And you become more amused And these rosy red checks were meant for Raggedy Anne Not me I'm going to be a fool for you I'm letting you laugh at the things I do Are you happy looking down on me? Are you frustrated at my inconsistency? I'm going to be a fool for you I watch as you laugh at the things I do You smile at me as I smile at you And maybe, for a second, we can be true I'm going to be a fool for you Going to be a fool for you Going to be a fool for you Going to be a fool for you In my mature moments can we be true to ourselves?
