Navigating Love's Labyrinth: Which of Us Is the Fool
Lyrics
She says that love can turn friends into fools
Love has the power to transform friendships into foolish relationships.
Make ' em easy prey
Love makes individuals vulnerable and easy targets.
Well I feel like bending her rules

I don't want to deceive her

Want to make her a believer

But she don't trust nobody

Which of us is the fool baby

You can't win if you can't lose

Can she tell how she makes my heart ache
Wondering if the person understands the impact she has on the speaker's emotions.
I just want to hold her

But I know if i told her

And it certainly feels that way
