What A Fool Believes

He came from somewhere
Back in here long ago
The sentimental fool don't see
Tryin' hard to recreate
What has yet to be created
Once in her life
She musters a smile
For his nostalgic tale
Never coming near
What he wanted to say
Only to realize
It never really was

* She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice
As he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely know
He watches her go

** But what a fool believes
He sees
No wise man has the power
To reason away
What seems to be
Is always better than nothing
Than nothing at all
Keeps sending him

Somewhere back here in here long ago
Where he can still believe
There's a place in her life
Someday, somewhere
She will return

* Repeat

But what a fool believes he sees
No wise man has the power
(No no) To reason away
What seems to be
(And what a fool believes he sees)
(No wise man has the power)
Is always better than nothing
Than nothing at all
(Nothing at all)

** Repeat
