Carpenters, The Ordinary Fool lyrics

Carpenters, The
Voice of the Heart
Ordinary Fool
Only a fool
Like fools before me
I always think with my heart
Only a fool
That same old story
Seems I was born for the part
It's a lesson to be learned
And a page I should have turned
I shouldn't cry but I do
Like an ordinary fool
When his ordinary dreams fall through

How many times
Have I mistaken
Good looks and laughs for bad news?

And how many times
Have I mistaken
Good looks and laughs for the blues?
When a road I walked before
Ends alone at my front door
I shouldn't cry but I do
Like an ordinary fool
When his ordinary dreams fall through

When a road I walked before
Ends alone at my front door
I shouldn't cry but I do
Like an ordinary fool
When his ordinary dreams fall through
