Emily Elbert Not A Fool
Time swept our love out with the rain*
And my heart slipped away
To the darkest of caves
And didn't come back for days
Now I sleep alone in our old bed
And I stage out my thoughts
And the unlikely plots
The things that remain unsaid
But I was not a fool
For believing in you
Not a fool
Just in over my head
We said that we would be good friends
But your shoulder turned cold
And your arms just let go
And found someone else instead
When I find the right one to love me
Don't call me saying that you're feeling lonely
Cause I've been lonely
And I don't need you
To waltz on in and expect to win cause you don't have a clue
Now I watch the snow
And feel the change
Now that wintertime's here
My mind starts to clear
I feel like myself again
No I'm nobody's fool
Maybe find somebody new
Not a fool, but a lover instead
