What a Fool Believes

He came from somewhere back in her long ago

The sentimental fools don’t see tryin’ hard

To recreate what had yet to be created once in her life

She musters a smile for his nostalgic tale

Never coming near what he wanted to say, hey, only to realize

It never really was

He had a place in her life

She never made him think twice

As he rises to her apology

Anybody else would surely know

He’s watching her go

And what a fool believes, he sees

No wise man has the power, oh yeah, to reason away, now

What seems to be

Is always better than nothing, oh yeah

Nothing at all, nothing at all

Keeps sending him somewhere back in her long ago

He can still believe there’s a place in her life

Hey, someday, somewhere, she will return

He had a place in her life, oh oh

She never made him think twice

As he rises to her apology

Anybody else would surely know

He’s watching her go, oh yeah

What a fool believes, he sees

No wise man has the power, oh yeah, to reason away, yeah

And what seems to be

Is always better than nothing, oh oh oh oh oh yeah

Nothing at all, nothing at all

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Get down, get it now, uh

Get down, get it now

Get down, get it now, oh

(What a fool believes, he sees) Uh, uh

(No wise man has the power) No wise man has the power

(To reason away) Oh, to reason away, yeah

(What a fool believes, he sees) What a fool believes, oh, he sees

No wise man has the power

To reason away, yeah, yeah

(What a fool believes, he sees)
