Thought that I knew what could be known
Somehow I missed a couple of things
There were desires that I projected
That stretched the chords of my heartstrings
Thought that you were a sweet honeybee
But I felt the prick of your venomous stings
Oh what a fool I was
I was wrong
Wrong about you
Didn’t get nothing right
I was wrong
Wrong about you
You crashed down from such a great height
I was wrong
You once said you’d take my hand
And walk me out of the wild
I believed in you and it gave me hope
When I was such a hopeless child
But then you left and you cut me loose
And ever since I been exiled
Oh what a fool I was
Thought we had an pact but it seems we don’t
It's just something that sounded good
You turned away like it was nothing at all
And you left me out here in the wood
I guess you did what you had to do
But it’s something I’ve never quite understood
Oh what a fool I was
