Your blue eyes looked so peaceful   While the storm raged on in me   The tears filled up my eyes and now I finally see   I've been livin' high and mighty   But now I'm at an all-time low   Now I'm reaching out to hold you   As you turn around to go      I should've been more careful   I should've seen the signs   While all was calm, I guess   I should have read between the lines   So, now I'm standing in the cold, hard rain   Instead of with you safe and warm   A fool who took your love for granted   In the calm before the storm      So, I'm standin' here alone   I've never felt like this before   Can't believe my heart's been broken   Just like waves against the shore   I could always love and leave them   I was the first one out the door   I can't get used to the idea   Not being with you anymore      I should've been more careful   Yes, I should've seen the signs   While all was calm, I guess   I should have read between the lines   So, now I'm standing in the cold, hard rain   Instead of with you safe and warm   A fool who took your love for granted   In the calm before the storm      A fool who took your love for granted   In the calm before the storm
