Everybody's somebody's fool
Francis Connie Lyrics

The tears I cried for you could fill an ocean
I cried so much for you that it feels like an ocean full of tears.

But you don't care how many tears I cry
You don't care about my feelings or how much I cry for you.

And though you only lead me on and hurt me
You deceive me and cause me harm, but I still can't let go.

I couldn't bring myself to say goodbye
I couldn't find the strength to walk away from you.

'Cause everybody's somebody's fool
Everyone gets fooled by someone they love.

Everybody's somebody's plaything
Everyone is played with by someone they love.

And there are no exceptions to the rule
This rule applies to everyone without exception.

I told myself it's best that I forget you,
I convinced myself that it's better to forget you.

Though I'm a fool, at least I know the score
Even though I'm foolish for holding onto you, I know what's going on.

Yet darlin', I'd be twice as blue without you
Despite the heartache you cause, life without you would be twice as miserable.

It hurts, but I'd come running back for more
Even though it causes pain, I would still come back to you for more.

Someday you'll find someone you really care for
One day, you'll find someone you truly love.

And if her love should prove to be untrue,
If she cheats or betrays you, like you did to me,

You'll know how much this heart of my is breakin'
Then you'll understand how much my heart was hurting when you did the same to me.

You'll cry for her the way I cried for you
You'll suffer the same pain I did and realize that everybody is someone's fool.

Yes, everybody's somebody's fool
This song's title and main message, that everyone falls for someone's tricks and heartbreak is a common experience.

Everybody's somebody's plaything
Everyone is vulnerable to manipulation and being toyed with by someone they love.

And there are no exceptions to the rule
This applies to everyone and it's a universal experience.
