Ordinary Fool Paul Williams

[Verse 1]
Only a fool, like fools before me
I always think with my heart
Only a fool, that same old story
Seems I was born for the part

[Chorus]
It's a lesson that I've learnt
And a page I should have turned
I shouldn't cry, but I do
Like an ordinary fool
When her ordinary dreams fall through

[Verse 2]
How many times have I mistaken
Good looks and laughs for bad news?
How many times have I mistaken
Love songs and laughs for the blues?

[Chorus]
When a road I've walked before
Ends alone at my front door
I shouldn't cry, but I do
Like an ordinary fool
When her ordinary dreams fall through
