There something about the way we fall apart[00:00:00]
Like everything that matters, didn't matter from the start[00:00:05]
Everyone around us played a part[00:00:10]
Wrecking ball came crashing through the windows[00:00:14]
Structures that we carry in our heart[00:00:17]
And all I ever asked of you[00:00:22]
Is just to be the woman that you wanted to[00:00:27]
It's all I ever asked[00:00:32]
Just outside the city on a Sunday last July[00:00:57]
The girl's name was Brandy but we called her Caroline[00:01:02]
No one even knew her history[00:01:07]
Said she came from somewhere in the southland[00:01:10]
Feels like she was coming straight for me[00:01:14]
I was playing nine ball with two guys I knew from work[00:01:19]
This junkie local starts acting like a jerk[00:01:24]
Saw him put his hand up Brandy's skirt[00:01:28]
And I don't know what happened next[00:01:32]
In retrospect I lost my head and think I went berserk[00:01:34]
By the time they pulled me off him I was almost coming to[00:01:43]
Bleeding at the knuckles, she says nice to meet you[00:01:48]
And the cops will probably be here in a flash[00:01:53]
We hailed a cab we both got in[00:01:56]
And watched that taxi driver slam his foot down on the gas[00:01:59]
Must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you[00:02:04]
Oh oh oh, must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you[00:02:13]
But I ain't nobody's fool[00:02:22]
Next few months we spent a lot of time up in the room[00:02:24]
Laughed a lot, drank a lot, yeah we tried to shoot the moon[00:02:29]
And in the morning time she'd always disappear[00:02:34]
I agreed, I'd never ask her questions[00:02:37]
With the chance of an answer I don't wanna hear[00:02:41]
One morning, she crying on the stoop outside my place[00:02:47]
She tryin' to hide it, there's sadness on her face[00:02:51]
Oh is there anything I can do?[00:02:56]
She said perhaps if you would drop this package off[00:02:59]
I would hate to inconvenience you[00:03:03]
Well they say a suckers born, every sixty seconds time[00:03:08]
I knew I shouldn't do it, but I put it from my mind[00:03:13]
And, oh if you knew that gal of mine[00:03:17]
You'd understand, I got no hand in making that decision[00:03:21]
Reason got no rhyme[00:03:26]
Must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you[00:03:29]
Oh oh oh, must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you[00:03:37]
But I ain't nobody's fool[00:03:47]
Nobody's fool no more[00:03:50]
I knocked at the address that she gave waited for a few[00:04:35]
Looked inside the window and I saw a kid or two[00:04:41]
Next thing I knew a burner in my face[00:04:47]
There's just some shit you never can erase[00:04:53]
Both my hands were shaking as the sun began to rise[00:05:01]
I got back to my house, she was gone I'm not surprised[00:05:07]
You can never ground a bird that needs to fly[00:05:14]
Oh I got into that urge to move[00:05:20]
Thanks to you, my wrecking ball Caroline[00:05:24]
Must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you[00:05:33]
Oh oh oh, must be a fool like me to be with a fool like you[00:05:41]
Oh oh oh, must be a fool like me to be with you[00:05:50]
Oh oh oh, must be a fool like me to be with you[00:06:00]
But I ain't nobody's fool[00:06:10]
Nobody's fool no more[00:06:12]
No more[00:06:19]
