| There something about the way we fall apart | |
| Like everything that matters, didn’t matter from the start | |
| Everyone around us played a part | |
| Wrecking ball came crashing through the window | |
| Structures that we carry in our heart | |
| And all I ever asked of you | |
| Is just to be the woman that you wanted to | |
| It’s all I ever asked | |
| Just outside the city on a Sunday last July | |
| The girl’s name was Brandy but we called her Caroline | |
| No one even knew her history | |
| Said she came from somewhere in the southland | |
| Feels like she was coming straight for me | |
| I was playing nine ball with two guys I knew from work | |
| This junkie local starts acting like a jerk | |
| Saw him put his hand up Brandy’s skirt | |
| And I don’t know what happened next | |
| In retrospect I lost my head and think I went berserk | |
| By the time they pulled me off him I was almost coming to | |
| Bleeding at the knuckles, she says nice to meet you | |
| And the cops will probably be here in a flash | |
| We hailed a cab we both got in | |
| And watched that taxi driver slam his foot down on the gas | |
| Must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you | |
| Oh oh oh | |
| Must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you | |
| But I ain’t nobody’s fool | |
| Next few months we spent a lot of time up in the room | |
| Laughed a lot, drank a lot, yeah we tried to shoot the moon | |
| And in the morning time she'd always disappear | |
| I agreed, I'd never ask her questions | |
| With the chance of an answer I don't wanna hear | |
| One morning, she crying on the stoop outside my place | |
| She tryin’ to hide it, there’s sadness on her face | |
| Oh is there anything I can do? | |
| She said perhaps if you would drop this package off | |
| I would hate to inconvenience you | |
| Well they say a suckers born, every sixty seconds time | |
| I knew I shouldn't do it, but I put it from my mind | |
| And, oh if you knew that gal of mine | |
| You’d understand, I got no hand in making that decision | |
| Reason got no rhyme | |
| Must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you | |
| Oh oh oh | |
| Must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you | |
| But I ain't nobody's fool | |
| Nobody's fool no more | |
| I knocked at the address that she gave waited for a few | |
| Looked inside the window and I saw a kid or two | |
| Next thing I knew a burner in my face | |
| There's just some shit you never can erase | |
| Both my hands were shaking as the sun began to rise | |
| I got back to my house, she was gone I'm not surprised | |
| You can never ground a bird that needs to fly | |
| Oh I got into that urge to move | |
| Thanks to you, my wrecking ball Caroline | |
| Must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you | |
| Oh oh oh | |
| Must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you | |
| Oh oh oh | |
| Must be a fool like me to be with you | |
| Oh oh oh | |
| Must be a fool like me to be with you | |
| But I ain't nobody's fool | |
| Nobody's fool no more | |
| No more |
