Fool Who Knows
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well a love won`t last the night if it`s built on sand
If it`s built on rock there ain`t nothing that it can`t withstand
I guess you know by now how this story goes
A very true story, take it from a fool who knows
I was high as a bird in the sky in the month of may
With a true fine love all mine forever and one day
Now my eyes overflowing with the memories such as those
They`re tear-stained memories, take it from a fool who knows
Now my tears are falling and I feel the pain
Here comes all that hurt again
But while my heart keeps beating I`ll go on repeating
The same mistakes that I did before
The ones that made me walk the floor
I`ve got a sack full of those, take it from a fool who knows
But well my tongue gets tired I `ll be getting wired
While my heart keeps beating I `ll go on repeating
The same mistakes that I did before
The ones that made love walk out the door
I got a sack full of those that Ill keep digging into
A lonesome road with a cold wind blowing
The path I chose, take it from a fool who knows
