Foolish heart, don’t let me down Leave me broken in this town Cause I’ve been gettin' on just fine Got no need to lose my mind
Foolish heart, I beg you please Let me fall asleep with ease Cause there’s no reason I should stay Laying here so wide awake
You got me hanging by a word Something you said that makes me feel like I can’t make it on my own Don’t care if I make it out alive You got me hanging by a word And now there’s nothing I can do to get my mind right There’s nothing I can do to get my mind off you You’ve got me hanging by a word It’s so absurd, foolish heart
We went driving out today Took our fears so far away To see if we’d get on just fine Or if it’d pass like fleeting time We laid out in fields of white The cotton buried us alive And as we laid with hearts on mend I prayed the day would never end
Cause you got me hanging by a word Something you said that makes me feel like I can’t make it on my own Don’t care if I make it out alive You got me hanging by a word And now there’s nothing I can do to get my mind right There’s nothing I can do to get my mind off you You’ve got me hanging by a word It’s so absurd, foolish heart
Foolish heart Foolish heart
Cause you got me hanging by a word Something you said that makes me feel like I can’t make it on my own Don’t care if I make it out alive You got me hanging by a word And now there’s nothing I can do to get my mind right There’s nothing I can do to get my mind off you You got me hanging by a word You got me hanging by a word You got me hanging by a word You got me hanging by a word It’s so absurd, foolish heart
