Song For A Fool
A.N.JELL Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ella's always on my line
She tells me everything is gonna be fine
And I'm indebted to her world
But find it hard to hear the voice of a girl
Caught up in a whirl
As of late I'm constantly plagued by the sense
That I've been here before
I've been up
I've been down
Running around
Looking for ways I can get off the ground
Waiting on love
Or a sign from above
But Ella you're always the one to reach out
Ella tells of tales past
The bridge she's walked upon is battered and cracked
Crooked waters stir below
So I reach out a hand and hope she grabs hold
But underestimate the weight of that load
I've been up
I've been down
Running around
Looking for ways I can get off the ground
But Ella my dear
It just became clear
All of this time you were weighing me down
There's no use in wriggling loose from the ties




All you have to do is reach out to my line
And I'll be there again
