Victim of a Foolish Heart (Single Version) [2007 Remaster]
Bettye Swann
Album : The Complete Atlantic Recordings
Your scars were still showing
When I first met you, baby
From all the wrong
She had done to you
Then I came along
And applied a little loving
Slowly but surely
I brought you through
But now she's back
To rekindle that old flame
She's got a different angle, baby
But she's playing the same old game
Baby, don't be a victim of a foolish heart
Don't let her lies get next to you
She's just trying to tear us apart
She's trying to make me her victim too
Now I know she comes round here
Every time I leave look out, baby
'Cause she knows she's still
On your mind got her on your mind
Even a wise man jumps in misery
Somewhere down the line listen, baby
But only a fool would jump
The second time
Our affair is growing
Stronger every day
Don't let her come and
Steal our happiness away
Baby, don't be a victim of a foolish heart
Don't let her lies get next to you
She's just trying to tear us apart
Trying to make me a victim too
Oh, baby, don't be a
Victim of a foolish heart
Don't let that girl get next to you
She's just trying to tear us apart
She's trying to make me her victim too
Don't let her do it
Don't you be a victim of a foolish heart
Don't let her lies get next to you
