Footsteps Of A Fool

Poco · Under The Gun [1980]

It's not the first time, I've been here before

I've stood in the hallway and stared at the door

My friends say I'm steady, both feet on the ground

But they never see me when she's around



When I'm standing on shaky (on shaky ground), afraid to look down

At the footsteps of a fool (footsteps of a fool)



What good does it do ya, to wait for the day

She'll come around and she'll see things your way

I swear that I'll walk away before it's the end

But each time it happens, I'm, I'm right back again



Standing here on this shaky (on shaky ground), afraid to look down

I keep standing here on this shaky ground (on shaky ground)

Afraid to look down, at the footsteps of a fool



She doesn't really love me anymore
