Lyrics
NOBODY'S FOOL
Not a flower in hand, or a sonnet
No emotion worn on my sleeve
Not a visible sign of what's honest
But I still refuse to leave
I've been living my life as if she needs me
My companion in all my dreams
I just can't find the means to show her
The world that she means to me
If I could tell her, and keep my cool
And part with this fear that it seems is the rule
She's amazing, life is cruel and lonely
But I'll be nobody's fool
When I look in her eyes, there's thunder
If my heart's ever turbulent skies
And I'm forced to admit my bias
That all other girls are disqualified
If I could tell her, and keep my cool
And part with this fear that it seems is the rule
She's amazing, life is cruel and lonely
But I'll be nobody's fool
Sometimes it haunts me to wonder
As I try to grasp this jewel
Is it better to be somebody's nothing
Than nobody's fool
If I could tell her, and keep my cool
And part with this fear that it seems is the rule
She's amazing, life is cruel and lonely
But I'll be nobody's fool
I'll be nobody's fool...
