mp3–>> The Same Old Fool (I Used to Be)

Woke up this morning
Jumped out of bed
Stared at the mirror
Till my eyes turned red
No matter how hard I look
There’s just not much to see

I’ve been gamblin on the future
with a bet from the past
but as quick as each day comes
I’m just not that fast
to count all the hearts
that get dealt to me

this may be the age of wisdom
but any fool can see
I’m tied to my heart
and I’m bound to believe
that I’m still the same old fool
I used to be

Been walking the streets
Keeping the pace
May not be that steady
But I’m still in the race
Just one step behind
In a waking dream

there was a woman in the mirror
With eyes like steel
We ground down the blade
till we could learn to feel
But the cut that came
Wasn’t all that clean

this may be the age of wisdom
but any fool can see
I’m tied to my heart
and I’m bound to believe
that I’m still the same old fool
I used to be

Talked on the phone
The other night
Three thousand miles
At the speed of light
Can’t make up
For everything in between

We both laughed
And did agree
That love and time
Can’t set you free
But it sure does make
plesant company

this may be the age of wisdom
but any fool can see
I’m tied to my heart
and I’m bound to believe
that I’m still the same old fool
I used to be
