I'll Play the Fool
Embracing Love's Folly: I'll Play the Fool by Claude Fontaine
Lyrics
I'll never live a life of regret
I am committed to living a life without regrets.
Some things you're certain are surely kismet
Certain things are destined or fated to happen.
If the tides turn and they pull us apart
If circumstances change and separate us, it's not predetermined by fate.
It wasn't in the stars
Our separation is not written in the stars, not predetermined by destiny.
What do I care who's wrong or who's right
I don't care about who is right or wrong in a conflict.
As long as it's you who's holding me tight
What matters is that you are the one holding me tightly.
Why waste our time even if we just met
No need to waste time, even in the early stages of our relationship.
Why play hard to get
Why pretend to be unattainable or distant.
I'll play the fool
I am willing to appear foolish for love.
When love is cruel
Especially when love is harsh or unkind.
Maybe I'll learn the next time
There's a possibility of learning from the experience.
Why play it cool
No need to act aloof or disinterested in love.
Love knows no rules
Love doesn't follow strict rules or guidelines.
As long as it's you that I call mine
As long as you are the one I consider mine.
I ask myself when I'm in a bind
Reflecting on when faced with difficulties.
When will you see that love can be blind
Questioning when the other person will realize love can be blind.
How do you hold yourself up when you fall
Asking how one can cope with a fall in love.
You win or you lose it all
Whether you win or lose, it encompasses everything.
I'll play the fool
Willingness to act foolish for love continues.
When love is cruel
Especially when love is unkind or harsh.
Maybe I'll learn the next time
There's a possibility of learning from the experience.
Why play it cool
No need to feign indifference in matters of love.
Love knows no rules
Love operates without strict rules or regulations.
As long as it's you that I call mine
As long as you are the one I consider mine.
I'll play the fool
The readiness to appear foolish for love persists.
When love is cruel
Especially when love is unkind or harsh.
Maybe I'll learn the next time
There's a possibility of learning from the experience.
Why play it cool
No need to feign indifference in matters of love.
Love knows no rules
Love operates without strict rules or regulations.
As long as it's you that I call mine
As long as you are the one I consider mine.
