I get used to thinking,
love is such a curious thing.
It's tough and it's cold,
it's the fools and the folds.
I don't speak your language,
no I don't get the first thing you mean.
If I thought you'd get hurt
by the things that i wrote.

well it's tough and it's cold,
it's the fools and the folds.

I can't tell you 'cos i don't wanna bring you down,
can't tell you 'cos i don't wanna bring you down,
it'not as bad as some people would make it.
I can't tell you 'cos i don't wanna bring you down,
can't tell you 'cos i don't wanna bring you down
it's not as bad as some people would make it sound.

i don't mind pretending
pretending every day of the year
It's tough and it's cold,
it's the fools and the folds.
i get it by the feeling
i turned on a smile in my head
If i thought you'd get hurt
by the things that i wrote.

well it's tough and it's cold,
it's the fools and the folds.

I can't tell you 'cos i don't wanna bring you down,
can't tell you 'cos i don't wanna bring you down,
it'not as bad as some people would make it.
I can't tell you 'cos i don't wanna bring you down,
can't tell you 'cos i don't wanna bring you down
it's not as bad as some people would make it sound.

...off on fridays
fifteen years and...
i'm hopelessly devoured
and...for the hopeless tonight
i see the Friday night waves
it's getting close to midnight
i tried to roll a cigarette
it's every and the best that i can get

I can't tell you 'cos i don't wanna bring you down,
can't tell you 'cos i don't wanna bring you down.
