BIGGER THE FOOL (THE HARDER THE FALL)
(Kris Kristofferson)
Kris Kristofferson - 1978
Hey, doesn't it still look easy as it did to you
Hey, wasn't it true after all
I couldn't help myself, girl, and I can't blame you
The bigger the fool, the harder the fall
Livin' on old illusions and some make believe
That mattered to me most of all
Closin' my eyes to changes I refused to see
The bigger the fool, the harder the fall
Somewhere in your future on the far side of your world
You might read my writing on the wall
Think of the easy dreamer who believed in you
The bigger the fool, the harder the fall
(Instrumental Break)
If somebody you wake up in a world that's turned on you
And nobody answers when you call
Hey, think of the crazy dreamer who believes in you
The bigger the fool, the harder the fall
Think of the easy dreamer who believes in you
The bigger the fool, the harder the fall
