Everybody's Somebody's Fool - Karin Krog, Dexter Gordon

The tears I’ve cried for you could fill an ocean

But you don’t care how many tears I’ve cried

And though you only leave me on and hurt me

I couldn’t bring myself to say goodbye

Cause everybody’s somebody’s fool

Everybody’s somebody’s plaything

And there are no exceptions to the rule

Yes, everybody’s somebody’s fool

I’ve told myself it’s best that I forget you

Though I’m a fool at least I know the score

If darling I’d be wise to do without you

It hurts, but I come running back for more

Cause everybody’s somebody’s fool…

Someday, you’ll find someone you really care for

And if her love should prove to be untrue

You’ll know how much this heart of mine is breaking

You’ll cry for her the way I cried for you

Cause everybody’s somebody’s fool…
