The Fool

[Verse 1]
Let's talk about this fool that I'm sure we both know
She's tryin' to stand on her own after fallin' once more
Too quick to let someone in
And she's crazy as hell when she drinks too much gin
She wants to feel needed, but she's never felt more alone

[Verse 2]
She watered her garden in hopes it would trigger a flood
But life is too short and too long to live stuck in the mud
Rain never lasts very long
But she chases those storms no matter how strong
The wheels are turnin' but really she's diggin' a rut

[Verse 3]
She smiles like an angel and daylight, it breaks after dark
She's managed to love you with one bid old hole in her heart
So let her down easy tonight
'Cause she wants to feel loved, but don't hold her too tight
She thinks that she wants you when she really needs anything but

[Outro]
So let's talk about this fool that I'm sure we both know
