A late night roll in the sand on Jericho beach after dark,
He held her soft little hand while she wore that white dress in Stanley Park
Laughter, love and music; sang a song about a lucky one
Without a reason why she said goodbye and it all just came undone
Cuz she was a precious flower that couldn’t last
So tight he held her through the cold nights
He opened up his whole life
And she walked away
Fool’s games don’t come with any rules babe
So just be glad if you get to play
Til she walks away
Until she walks away
They travelled half the world, watched the sun set on desert sands
His one and only girl, she was always his biggest fan
Their dreams led to city lights and he worked his fingers to the bone
But he wasn’t by her side those nights she cried waiting all alone at home
Cuz he was a ramblin man who couldn’t stay
So tight she held on through the cold nights
She opened up her whole life
And he walked away
Fool’s games don’t come with any rules babe
So just be glad if you get to play
Til he walks away
Until he walks away
So tight he held her through the cold nights
He opened up his whole life
And she walked away
Fool’s games don’t come with any rules babe
So just be glad if you get to play
Til she walks away
Until she walks away
Until he walks away
