Hey I've been around I've seen it all   Love is a chain around your heart   That holds you down   You're better off runnin' away before it starts   I wanted to chase my dreams   I thought freedom meant everything but      Hey, hey what do I know   I'm just a lonely fool that let you go   And now what do I do   Thought I could live without you but   What do I know      Look who I've become I wanted it all   Oh but it hasn't happened yet   Look what I've done I've built a wall   In between me and happiness   I had the answers I made the rules   And I thought I had nothing to lose but      Hey, hey what do I know   I'm just a lonely fool that let you go   And now what do I do   Thought I could live without you but   What do I know      I had the answers I made the rules   And I thought I had nothing to lose but      Hey, hey what do I know   I'm just a lonely fool that let you go   And now what do I do   Thought I could live without you without you but   What do I know   But what do I know
