Foolish Lullaby
David Hasselhoff · Other Songs - David Hasselhoff
We trade philosophy but nothing can free you
Too many poisoned arrows hit
The heart you try to hide
Can't we say goodbye to this foolish lullaby
You still you talk as if
He didn't hurt you
But I see what he did
And you see the virtue
And you refuse to hear the words
And lie behind your eyes
Can't you say goodbye to this foolish lullaby
If you're so sure that he's the one
But why are you lying here with me
Did he ever cross your mind at all
Of how this feels to me
I never know just what you see in him
I don't even wanna try
I guess the both of us
Sing this foolish lullaby
So we'll wear the goodbye, look
You're left in excuses
With all the time it took
To hide the abuses
The thorns around the roses left
The mark below our eyes
Can't we say goodbye to this foolish lullaby
If you're so sure that he's the one
And why are you lying here with me
Did he ever cross your mind at all
Of how this feels to me
I never know just what you see in him
I don't even wanna try
I guess the both of us
Sing a foolish lullaby
If you're so sure that he's the one
And why are you lying here with me
Did he ever cross your mind at all
Of how this feels to me
I never know just what you see in him
I don't even wanna try
I guess the both of us
Sing a foolish lullaby
