[Intro]
Lately when I'm in my room
All by myself
In the solitary gloom
I call to myself

[Verse 1]
Hey there
You with the stars in your eyes
Love never made a fool of you
You used to be too wise
Hey there
You on that high flyin' cloud
Though he won't throw a crumb to you
You think someday he'll come to you

[Verse 2]
Better forget him
Him with his nose in the air
He has you dancin' on a string
Break it and he won't care
Won't you take this advice I hand you like a mother?
Or are you not seein' things too clear?
Are you too much in love to hear?
Is it all goin' in one ear
And out the other?

[Verse 3]
Hey there
You with the stars in your eyes (Are you talking to me?)
Love never made a fool of you (Not until now)
You used to be too wise (Yes, I was once)
Will you take this advice I hand you like a mother?
Or am I not seein' things too clear?
Are you just too far gone to hear?
Is it all goin' in one ear
And out the other?
