Carpenters Lyrics
"Ordinary Fool"

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

It's a lesson to be learned
And a page I should have turned
I shouldn't cry but I do, like an ordinary fool
When his ordinary dreams fall through

How many times have I mistaken
Good looks and laughs for bad news?
And how many times have I mistaken
Good looks and laughs for the blues?

When a road I walked before
Ends alone at my front door
I shouldn't cry but I do, like an ordinary fool
When his ordinary dreams fall through

When a road I walked before
Ends alone at my front door
I shouldn't cry but I do, like an ordinary fool
When his ordinary dreams fall through
