You Make a Fool Out of Me Lyrics
I left my happy home
I took off down the road
I tried to hold my tongue
I’ve never felt so dumb
There’s only so much i can take
When you point out my every mistake
And you show me up now so that everyone can see
And you make a fool out of me
I had the stranger's dream
I tried but could not scream
Nobody seemed to care
And I’m sure that you were there
What I believe to be true
Whatever my point of view
You prove me wrong
And you’ll disagree
And you'll make a fool out of me
I took the long way home
I needed time alone
I breathed evening air
And I wished that you were there
And how should I take what you say
When you’ll just explain it all away
And you’ll pull the rug out from under my feet
And you'll make a fool out of me
You make a fool out of me
You make a fool out of me
(Repeat)
I took off down the road

I’ve never felt so dumb

And you show me up now so that everyone can see
And you make a fool out of me
I tried but could not scream
Nobody seemed to care
And I’m sure that you were there
What I believe to be true
Whatever my point of view
You prove me wrong
And you’ll disagree
And you'll make a fool out of me
I needed time alone
I breathed evening air
And I wished that you were there
And how should I take what you say
When you’ll just explain it all away
And you’ll pull the rug out from under my feet
And you'll make a fool out of me
You make a fool out of me
You make a fool out of me
