I see you running with your friends I don't know why it comes to mind I think of you before our time You go all happy on your way Out at night to meet the boys Neon lights and heady noise And what'd you reckon, baby? Did it cut it? Did it work? Or did pretty boys and pretty words bring more trouble than they're worth? And now another asking for your hand You don't know if you have it in your heart to roll the dice again I'd rather be the fool You'd know it if it's true Letting go and I'm gonna lose And all down to you I'd rather be the fool I love you for all that you've fought I love you for your bitter twist Your gentle hand, your hopeless kissin' Oh, I look into your eyes I read a mind and I can tell It's me that's been read very well What you reckon, baby? Anybody put to words? Or draw it off in someone's mind How it feels when we lock eyes And now another asking for your hand You don't know if you have it in your heart to roll the dice again I'd rather be the fool You'd know it if it's true Letting go and I'm gonna lose And all down to you I'd rather be the fool I tell myself I wish I'd met you sooner in the game That our hearts still are soothing and our love would play the same But I don't know, baby, might I shouldn't say I cannot time the light, I cannot time the pain I'd rather be the fool You'd know it if it's true Letting go and I'm gonna lose And all down to you I'd rather be the fool
I love this. Heard it on the radio today. I must admit I wasn’t that interested in Mick when I first heard him as the tone was too close to the well known American singer he was often compared to, but this is his own voice, shaped by a real lovelorn heart. Well done on a fine achievement
Just saw himself play in OKeefes Clonmel tonight... to anyone thinking, “will I buy a ticket/cd/album, do it, you won’t be disappointed. Absolutely fabulous gig!
I see you running with your friends
I don't know why it comes to mind
I think of you before our time
You go all happy on your way
Out at night to meet the boys
Neon lights and heady noise
And what'd you reckon, baby?
Did it cut it? Did it work?
Or did pretty boys and pretty words bring more trouble than they're worth?
And now another asking for your hand
You don't know if you have it in your heart to roll the dice again
I'd rather be the fool
You'd know it if it's true
Letting go and I'm gonna lose
And all down to you
I'd rather be the fool
I love you for all that you've fought
I love you for your bitter twist
Your gentle hand, your hopeless kissin'
Oh, I look into your eyes
I read a mind and I can tell
It's me that's been read very well
What you reckon, baby?
Anybody put to words?
Or draw it off in someone's mind
How it feels when we lock eyes
And now another asking for your hand
You don't know if you have it in your heart to roll the dice again
I'd rather be the fool
You'd know it if it's true
Letting go and I'm gonna lose
And all down to you
I'd rather be the fool
I tell myself I wish I'd met you sooner in the game
That our hearts still are soothing and our love would play the same
But I don't know, baby, might I shouldn't say
I cannot time the light, I cannot time the pain
I'd rather be the fool
You'd know it if it's true
Letting go and I'm gonna lose
And all down to you
I'd rather be the fool
I think its . . .
"Letting or win or lose and all down to you" and later
"Our hearts would still have suited, and our love would play the same"
