Lyrics

I was a fool for loving you until there was nothing left to give
You told me how much that you cared although I'm not sure that you did
I stood out on a ledge just long enough so you'd come and talk me down
It was the only way I'd get the feeling you needed me around

And I clung to the thread that you were dangling
So carefully making the climb

Did you take my heart so you could break it
Before you cut me loose (my neck inside your noose, before you cut me loose)
My love wasn't all just for the taking
There for you to use
As you see fit to pick and choose, love

I let my imagination run wild with ideas so ill conceived
That if I carried the weight for both of us someday you would believe
But what I failed to recognize is that I was sinking with the ship
Further down in the depths with every word that was falling from your lips

I was a fool for loving you (my neck inside your noose)
After all you put me through (before you cut me loose)
I fell right through the floor and landed on the ground
Alone without a sound
