Mick Flannery - Fool

Tekst piosenki:

I see you running with your friends
I don't know why it comes to mind
I think of you before our time
You go all happy on your way
Out at night to meet the boys
Neon lights and heady noise

And what'd you reckon, baby?
Did it cut it? Did it work?
Or did pretty boys and pretty words bring more trouble than they're worth?
And now another asking for your hand
You don't know if you have it in your heart to roll the dice again

I'd rather be the fool
You'd know it if it's true
Betting all and win or lose
I'm all down to you
I'd rather be the fool

I love you for all that you've fought
I love you for your bitter twist
Your gentle hand, your hopeless kiss
Oh, I look into your eyes
I read your mind and I can tell
It's me that's being read very well

What you reckon, baby?
Anybody put to words
Or draw it up in someones mind
How it feels when we lock eyes?
And now another asking for your hand
You don't know if you have it in your heart to roll the dice again

I'd rather be the fool
You'd know it if it's true
Betting all and win or lose
I'm all down to you
I'd rather be the fool

I tell myself I wish I'd met you sooner in the game
That our hearts still are soothing and our love would play the same
But I don't know, babe, might I shouldn't say
I cannot time the light, I cannot time the pain

I'd rather be the fool
You'd know it if it's true
Betting all and win or lose
I'm all down to you
I'd rather be the fool
