Only A Fool
Wisdom in Folly: Unraveling the Meaning Behind 'Only A Fool'
Lyrics
I was a fool to begin with
I initially acted foolishly
Long before this dance began
My foolishness predates the current situation
Oh, there's no mistakin'
There's no doubt about the message conveyed
What you're sayin' with that moony glance
Your meaningful look leaves no room for misinterpretation
Only a fool
Understanding requires a certain level of foolishness
Would understand
Only a fool would comprehend the situation
I was fool when I met you
I was foolish when I first encountered you
And oh, I bet you knew it too
You were aware of my foolishness from the start
How else could we stay standin'?
How else could we endure and continue?
All those nights dream-landin', ooh
Reflecting on nights of dreaming
Only a fool
Understanding requires a certain level of foolishness
Would understand
Only a fool would comprehend the situation
The wisdom of the ages
Deep insights from various sources
From the Gita to Abraham
From the Bhagavad Gita to Abraham
Was written by smitten, lonely sages
Written by love-stricken and lonely wise individuals
Too wise to ever take a chance
Too wise to take emotional risks
Life could be cruel
Life can be harsh at times
Now and then
Occasionally
But I couldn't fathom way back when
I couldn't anticipate in the past
How I'd long to have you break my heart time and again
How I would desire for you to repeatedly break my heart
Only a fool
Understanding requires a certain level of foolishness
Would understand
Only a fool would comprehend the situation
Only a fool
Understanding requires a certain level of foolishness
Would understand
Only a fool would comprehend the situation
