Love Makes a Fool of Everyone
J.E. Sunde Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No one can make you unhappy
Like the one to whom you've given your heart
Or bear you up and protect you
When everything else falls apart

We all stand naked before you
With stretch marks and dimples on our thighs
Hoping that we've found a refuge
To last for the rest of our lives

Love makes a fool of everyone
It's a kind of fool you don't mind to be
Love makes a fool of everyone
It's a kind of fool you don't mind to be

Perhaps it's foolish
There's nothing so foolish as love
To bind your purpose
To something so foolish as love
Maybe the foolish things are designed
To confound the selfish mind

Love makes a fool of everyone
It's a kind of fool you don't mind to be
Love makes a fool of everyone
It's a kind of fool you don't mind to be




Love makes a fool of everyone
It's a kind of fool you don't mind to be

Overall Meaning

In J.E. Sunde's song "Love Makes A Fool Of Everyone," the lyrics delve into the unpredictable nature of love and its impact on our lives. The song begins by acknowledging that the person we love has the power to make us unhappy like no one else. When we open our hearts to someone, we become vulnerable, relying on them to support and protect us when everything else seems to crumble. We expose our flaws, both physically and emotionally, hoping to find solace and a lasting refuge in this love.


The chorus emphasizes that love has the ability to turn everyone into a fool, yet it's a kind of foolishness that we don't mind embracing. It suggests that love has the power to make us do irrational things, but it is a beautiful and worthwhile experience despite its unpredictable nature.


The next two verses explore the idea that love is itself a foolish endeavor. It binds our purpose and devotes our energy and emotions to something that might seem senseless to others. However, the song acknowledges that perhaps these foolish things, including love, are deliberately meant to challenge and confuse our selfish minds.


Overall, "Love Makes A Fool Of Everyone" portrays love as both a source of vulnerability and strength. It captures the paradoxical nature of love, highlighting its ability to make us do foolish things while also acknowledging its profound impact and the willingness to embrace that "foolishness."
