Melanie Safka - Fooling Yourself To think I was a fool and I’ve been beaten A thought like that just kind of cramps my style But I’ll get you some day for all your cheating And from my face you’re gonna see a smile CHORUS 1: You should have never told me that you love me You knew I’d start believing it some day Now you say you’re leaving me for lonely Someone else is gonna come my way CHORUS 2: You better take some time and think of what you’re doing Before you throw away this harmony yeah I don’t think you know just who’s been losing ’Cause you’ve been fooling yourself When you think you’re fooling me I’m the kind of girl who don’t mind crying I ain’t gonna shed a tear for you Unless you change your ways and stop your lying I’m gonna change my mind about loving you CHORUS 1: You should have never told me that you love me You knew I’d start believing it some day Now you say you’re leaving me for lonely Someone else is gonna come my way CHORUS 2: You better take some time and think of what you’re doing Before you throw away this harmony yeah yeah You don’t realise just who’s been losing ’Cause you’ve been fooling yourself When you think you’re fooling me OUTRO: Fooling Fooling yourself Fooling Fooling yourself Are you fooling Fooling yourself? Are you fooling Fooling yourself? Are you fooling Fooling yourself?

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque la déception et la trahison dans une relation amoureuse. La narratrice se sent trompée par les promesses d’amour de son partenaire et commence à réaliser qu’elle mérite mieux que des mensonges. Elle exprime sa résilience et sa détermination à ne plus pleurer pour quelqu’un qui ne la respecte pas. Dans ce contexte, elle encourage son partenaire à réfléchir aux conséquences de ses actes, avant de perdre l’harmonie qu’ils partageaient. La chanson capte parfaitement le mélange de vulnérabilité et de force qui accompagne les ruptures.
