Only a Fool Songtext
von Father John Misty

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 could 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
