what does a fool do with a broken heart?
classic tale of the bumbling fool who wrecks the relationship by not paying attention & shooting their mouth off.
BMI songwriter , drummer/percussionist , keyboards.
I write from the soul & heart and from life experiences
single artist/songwriter. drummer/percussionist/keyboard/arranger.
Story behind the song
had this unusual idea of how does a fool mend the heart they have broken ? with some scissors & tape ? pretty desperate .also the arrogance , denial, & self pity syndrome .
Lyrics
when this pain in my chest goes away
i'll pass it off , as nothing
probly' was just something that i ate late last night
that disagreed with me
like that fight you and i had the other day
i spoke my mind in my , opinionated way
now it looks like rain today
WHAT DOES A FOOL DO ,WITH A BROKEN HEART
HOW DO THEY TELL SOMEONE, I NEVER MEANT TO HURT YOU
WHAT DOES A FOOL DO , WITH A BROKEN HEART
WHAT DOES A FOOL DO , WHEN THEIR WHOLE WORLD FALLS APART
DO THEY USE SOME SCISSORS , AND AN ENDLESS ROLL OF TAPE
IN HOPES THAT IT WILL MEND, THE MESS THAT THEY HAVE MADE?
bridge> should i have told you , how beautiful you were
when you walked by
reached out ot hold you , and talked it out
when things wern't right
maybe a love note on your pillow, for you to find
but most of all i should have took the time
so you would see , how much you meant to me
last verse) looks like this pain in my chest is here to stay
left here alone , with nothing
and every fool breaks something
then throws it away , in my opinionated way
i KNOW it's gonna' rain today
repeat chorus
