Father John Misty - Only a Fool lyrics
[Father John Misty - Only a Fool lyrics]
I was a fool to begin with
Long before this dance began
Oh, there's no mistaking
What you're saying
With that moony glance
Only a fool would understand
I was a fool when I met you
And, oh, I bet you knew it, too
How else could we stay standing?
All those nights dream landing
Only a fool would understand
The wisdom of the ages
From Gita to Abraham
Was written by smitten, lonely sages
Too wise to ever take a chance
Life can be cruel now and then
But I couldn't fathom way back when
How I'd long to have you
Break my heart time and again
Only a fool would understand
Only a fool would undеrstand
Long before this dance began
Oh, there's no mistaking
What you're saying
With that moony glance
Only a fool would understand
I was a fool when I met you
And, oh, I bet you knew it, too
How else could we stay standing?
All those nights dream landing
Only a fool would understand
The wisdom of the ages
From Gita to Abraham
Was written by smitten, lonely sages
Too wise to ever take a chance
Life can be cruel now and then
But I couldn't fathom way back when
How I'd long to have you
Break my heart time and again
Only a fool would understand
Only a fool would undеrstand
