He came from somewhere back in her long ago |
|
The sentimental fool don't see |
|
Tryin' hard to recreate what had yet to be created |
|
Once in her life she musters a smile |
|
For his nostalgic tale |
|
Never coming near what he wanted to say |
|
Only to realize |
|
It never really was |
|
She had a place in his life |
|
He never made her think twice |
|
As he rises to her apology |
|
Anybody else would surely know |
|
He's watching her go |
|
But what a fool believes he sees |
|
No wise man has the power |
|
To reason away |
|
What seems to be |
|
Is always better than nothing |
|
And nothing at all |
|
Keeps sending him |
|
Somewhere back in her long ago |
|
Where he can still believe there's a place in her life |
|
Someday, somewhere |
|
She will return |
|
She had a place in his life |
|
He never made her think twice |
|
As he rises to her apology |
|
Anybody else would surely know |
|
He's watching her go |
|
But what a fool believes he sees |
|
No wise man has the power |
|
To reason away |
|
What seems to be (If love can come and love can go, then why can't love return once more?) |
|
Is always better than nothing (Fool's got the power) |
|
And nothing at all (Oh, now) |
|
What a fool believes (I believe she's never gone away) |
|
He sees (Oh) |
|
No wise man has the power (To reason away) |
|
To reason away |
|
What seems to be (Oh, if love can come and love can go, oh, mama) |
|
Is always better than nothing (Better than nothing) |
|
And nothing at all |
