Day Of The Dummy

DAY OF THE DUMMY - Written by Carroll Bryant 

I used to be the kind of guy who had to be strong

Then you came along and you made your way inside

Deep in my heart

You brought the sun out of my personal storm

What I didn't know was that you were a lie

You twisted every word to confuse and abuse me

And when you said goodbye, I realized 

That was the day that you said that you loved me

That was the day

The day of the dummy

To believe in you is what you always call funny

That was the day

The day of the dummy 

It was the day I became your fool 

How long did you think I would keep on believing?

Come the morning after when you ran back to him

News travels fast on this side of the city 

And it helps people like me to have a city full of friends today

That was the day that you said that you loved me

That was the day

The day of the dummy

To believe in you is what you always call funny

That was the day

The day of the dummy 

It was the day I became your fool

Just a nerdy notion 

Past days are gone and memories are few

I keep getting tangled up inside all of these emotions 

They keep making me feel so blue 

Is there nothing a fool can do? 

Tell me to do something!

I used to be the kind of guy who had to be strong

Then you came along and made your way inside

Deep in my heart

What a beautiful and nasty day it was

That was the day that you said that you loved me

That was the day

The day of the dummy

To believe in you is what you always call funny

That was the day

The day of the dummy 

It was the day I became your fool

It was the day I fell in love with you
