You took your coat off and stood in the rain, You were 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 Then you stood in my doorway, with nothing 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
CHORUS: These foolish games are tearing me apart You thoughtless words are breaking my heart You're breaking my heart
You were always brilliant in the morning Smoking you cigarettes, talking over coffee Your philosophies on art, Baroque moved you, You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved ones As I clumsily strummed my guitar
Excuse me, think I've mistaken you for somebody else Somebody who gave a damn, Somebody more like myself
REPEAT CHORUS
You took your coat off and stood in the rain you were always like that
