Joan Armatrading - Romancers
Every day
My friends say
I'm in the worst kind of trouble
But they talk in vain
I ain't listening
I listed too often
Where they get their wisdom
I shall never know
And I can't believe my ears
There's fifty people
Telling me to
Give it up
But I don't want to hear
Fortune tellers
Seeing omens
And writings on walls
I think they falsify
They mean to see me cry
They offer less than my hopes
Where they get their magic
I shall never know
And I can't believe my eyes
They push the rainbows out
And give you
Stormy skies
But I don't want to know
I'm living in a fool's paradise
I'm living on false hope and lies
I'm gonna be rejected
Let down
Expect it
I'm living in a fool's paradise
My baby say
It's all alright
That's good enough for me
Say pay no heed to idle minds
They're all romancers
My friends say
I'm in the worst kind of trouble
But they talk in vain
I ain't listening
I listed too often
Where they get their wisdom
I shall never know
And I can't believe my ears
There's fifty people
Telling me to
Give it up
But I don't want to hear
Fortune tellers
Seeing omens
And writings on walls
I think they falsify
They mean to see me cry
They offer less than my hopes
Where they get their magic
I shall never know
And I can't believe my eyes
They push the rainbows out
And give you
Stormy skies
But I don't want to know
I'm living in a fool's paradise
I'm living on false hope and lies
I'm gonna be rejected
Let down
Expect it
I'm living in a fool's paradise
My baby say
It's all alright
That's good enough for me
Say pay no heed to idle minds
They're all romancers
