It starts thinkin’ you’ll come around
And maybe, someday, when we’re older
This is something we’ll laugh about
Over coffee every mornin’ while you’re watching the news
Pre-Chorus
But then the voices say, “You are not the exception
You will never learn your lesson”
Chorus
Foolish one
Stop checkin’ your mailbox for confessions of love
That ain’t never gonna come
You will take the long way, you will take the long way down
Foolish one
Stop checkin’ your mailbox for confessions of love
That ain’t never gonna come
You will learn the hard way instead of just walkin’ out

Bridge
Now I’m slidin’ down the wall with my head in my hands
Sayin’, “How could I not see the signs?”
Oh, you haven’t written me or called
But goodbye screamin’ in the silence
And the voices in my head are tellin’ me why
‘Cause you got her on your arm and me in the wings
I’ll get your longing glances, but she’ll get your ring
And you will say you had the best of intentions
And maybe I will finally learn my lesson
Chorus
Foolish one
Stop checkin’ your mailbox for confessions of love
That ain’t never gonna come
You will take the long way, you will take the long way down
Foolish one
Stop checkin’ your mailbox for confessions of love
That ain’t never gonna come
You will learn the hard way instead of just walkin’ out, oh-oh, oh, oh
Outro
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, oh
La-la-la-la-la
Ain’t never gonna come
Ooh, you will learn the hard way now
Foolish one
Sittin’ ‘round waiting for confessions of love
They ain’t never gonna come
And thinkin’ he’s the one, you should’ve been walkin’ out
