My Cards Are On The Table..
Yours Are In Your Hand..
Chances Are Tonight You've
Already Got Plans
And Chances Are..
I Will Talk Myself To Sleep Again..
You Give Me Just Enough Attention..
To Keep My Hopes Too High
Wishful Thoughts Forget To Mention..
When Something's Really Not Right
And I Will Block Out
These Voices Of Reason In My Head..
And The Voices Say,
You Are Not.. The Exception
You Will Never Learn Your Lesson
Chorus :
Foolish One
Stop Checking Your Mailbox
For Confessions Of Love
That Ain't Never Gonna Come..
You Will Take The Long Way
You Will Take The Long Way Down..
You Know How To Keep Me Waiting
I Know How To Act Like I'm Fine
Don't Know What To Call This Situation
But I Know I Can't Call You Mine
And It's Delicate
But I Will Do My Best
To Seem Bulletproof..
Cause When My Head Is On Your Shoulder
It Starts Thinking You'll Come Around
And Maybe Someday When We're Older
This Is Something We'll Laugh About
Over Coffee Every Morning
While You're Watching The News..
But Then The Voices Say,
You Are Not.. The Exception
You Will Never Learn Your Lesson
Chorus :
Foolish One
Stop Checking Your Mailbox
For Confessions Of Love
That Ain't Never Gonna Come..
You Will Take The Long Way
You Will Take The Long Way Down..
Foolish One
Stop Checking Your Mailbox
For Confessions Of Love
That Ain't Never Gonna Come..
You Will Learn The Hard Way
Instead Of Just Walking Out..
Now I'm Sliding Down The Wall
With My Head In My Hands
Saying, How Could I Not See
The Signs..?
Oh, You Haven't Written Me Or Called
But Goodbye Screaming In The Silence
And The Voices In My Head
Are Telling Me Why..
Cause You Got Her On Your Arm
And Me In The Wings
I'll Get Your Longing Glances
But She'll Get Your Ring
And You Will Say
You Had The Best Of Intentions..
And Maybe I Will Finally Learn My Lesson
Chorus :
Foolish One
Stop Checking Your Mailbox
For Confessions Of Love
That Ain't Never Gonna Come..
You Will Take The Long Way
You Will Take The Long Way Down..
Foolish One
Stop Checking Your Mailbox
For Confessions Of Love
That Ain't Never Gonna Come..
You Will Learn The Hard Way
Instead Of Just Walking Out.. Ooh O Oh..
Lalala Lala.. Lalala Lala
Oh Lalala Lala.. Ain't Never Gonna Come
Uuh.. You Will Learn The Hard Way Now..
Foolish One..
Sitting 'Round Waiting
For Confessions Of Love
They Ain't Never Gonna Come..
And Thinking He's The One
You Should've Been Walking Out..
Foolish One
The Day Is Gonna Come
For Your Confessions Of Love
When All Is Said And Done..
He Just Wasn't The One
No, He Just Wasn't The One..
