Your blue eyes looked so peaceful
While the storm raged on in me
The tears filled up my eyes and now I finally see
I've been livin' high and mighty
But now I'm at an all-time low
Now I'm reaching out to hold you
As you turn to go
CHORUS
I should've been more careful
I should've seen the signs
While all was calm, I guess
I should've read between the lines
So, now I'm standin' in the cold, hard rain
Instead of with you safe and warm
A fool who took your love for granted
So, I'm standin' here alone
I've never felt like this before
Can't believe my heart's been broken
Just like waves against the shore
I could always love and leave them
I was the first one out the door
I can't get used to the idea
Not being with you anymore
CHORUS
A fool who took you love for granted
In the calm before the storm
