Broken By A Fool

waylaid, blindsided
and left lying on the floor
he said goodbye
don’t want her love no more
why baby why?
she’s screaming at the door

love left alone
and dying on the vine
she walks alone
by a neon sign
nowhere to go
but found somewhere to hide

she walked into the bar
like she was far, far from anywhere
her heart just been broken by a fool

shelled and shattered
by a scarred, scarred love affair
there’s nothing anyone can do
for a heart that’s been broken by a fool

frozen stares and vacant eyes
no one has a name
maybe stay till closing time
maybe stay for days


waylaid, blindsided
and left lying on the floor
he said goodbye
don’t want her love no more
why baby why?
she opened up the door

and walked into the bar
like she was far, far from anywhere
her heart just been broken by a fool

shelled and shattered
by a scarred, scarred love affair
there’s nothing anyone can do
for a heart that’s been broken by a fool
