Lyrics
The Fool
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.
You dont know me, but I know who you are.
Mind I sit down?
Do I look familiar? If I dont well I should.
Im sure youve seen me around.
I know that youve probably heard my name,
though weve not been introduced.
Im the fool in love with the fool, who is still in love withyou.
If youve got a minute, Ill buy you a drink.
Ive got something to say.
It might seem crazy, but last night in his sleep,
I heard him call out your name. This aint the first time,
hes done it before and its hard to face the truth.
Im the fool in love with the fool, who is still in love withyou.
I know love is a fragile thing, and im trying hard to make itlast,
but it aint easy holding on to my dream, when hes holding on
to the past.
Just one more thing, before I go. Im not here to put you down.
You dont love him thats a fact. Girl Ive seen you around.
You hold his heart in the palm of your hand,
and it's breaking mine in two
Cause I'M the fool in love with the fool who's still in love withyou
Im the fool in love with the fool, who is still in love withyou.
