[Lyric] Pity the Fool (Grace Womack)

PITY THE FOOL

A message in a bottle that never reached the shore
A woman in a red dress walking out the door
A lover with a broken heart
A motor that just wouldn’t start
So many different stories and what are they all for?

Ours was a summer
But tainted by the rain
Shrouded in your mystery
Painted by my pain

Take a deep breath in
And let it out
Release all of the memories
You wish you could forget about
One day you’ll say his name for the last time
One day you’ll say his name for thе last time

Pity the fool who fell in lovе with her fellow man
Pity the fool who never had the upper hand
Pity the child who kept falling down before she flew
Pity the fool who fell in love with you
Taken for granted
Thrown out to the curb
Broken and bandaged
Is this what I deserve?

They say his heart’s in the right place
But does that matter in the end?
While I’m sitting crying and he’s doin fine
Tell me, baby, does it matter then?

Pity the fool who fell in love with her fellow man
Pity the fool who never had the upper hand
Pity the child who kept falling down before she flew
Pity the fool who fell in love with you

You took your time
You drew it out
You set your sights on me and shot me down
But don’t think twice
Cuz all in time
I’ll forget all the reasons that I ever called you mine

But for now we’re just a story to tell
A story of two lovers who fell
Fell from grace
Out of place
And out of time
So pity the fool who fell in love with a boy so young
Pity the fool who got dependent and called it love
Pity the child who kept falling down before she flew
Pity the fool who fell in love with you

Pity the fool who fell in love with you
