What A Fool
Julie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I stumbled
But the words wouldn't find their way
To make you see how I feel
So I did it, tried again
Now you say that you're confused
If it's just a trick I'm playing
The damage is still an open wound
You held my hands
A friendly kiss and you were gone
What a fool
Every single awaken hour
There is not a passing day
That I wouldn't think of you
What a fool
I regret the thing I've told you
And if I could take it back
You don't know it, but I would
What a fool
Could I hear it in my voice
When we talked about mistakes
Living without you baby
In a way I can't explain
Made me see how we both changed
Made me want you back again
I couldn't replace you
Just a fool would try
And so I lost you
There you go
All I've shown was all in vain
What a fool
Every single awaken hour
There is not a passing day
That I wouldn't think of you
What a fool
I regret the thing I've told you
And if I could take it back
You don't know it, but I would
What a fool

In the song "What A Fool," Julie expresses regret and sadness for losing the person she loves. She reflects on her mistakes and how she couldn't convey her feelings to her lover, which led to the relationship ending. Julie is aware that she acted foolishly by playing games and making mistakes that hurt their relationship. She wishes she could take back what she said and do things differently, but it is too late. The lyrics reveal the pain of heartbreak, the struggle to move on, and the power of hindsight.
The first verse shows Julie's frustration with herself for not being able to express her love for her partner. Despite wanting to convey how she felt, words wouldn't come out. She tried again, but the damage was already done, and there is an "open wound" left from their past mistakes. The second verse reflects on Julie's realization of the changes they both went through, leading to the end of their relationship. The regrets are evident in the line "Made me want you back again, I couldn't replace you, just a fool would try, and so I lost you." Julie acknowledges that her actions caused her to lose the one she loved, and she feels like a fool for doing so.
Overall, the song is an emotional journey through the ups and downs of a failed relationship. It emphasizes the importance of open communication, honesty, and the power of love.

Could you read it in my face
I was so obvious about my feelings when I stumbled, but I couldn't put them into words to tell you how I truly felt
But the words wouldn't find their way
I struggled to express how I felt
To make you see how I feel
To help you understand the emotions I have towards you
So I did it, tried again
I made another attempt to tell you how I felt
Now you say that you're confused
You seem unsure about my feelings for you
If it's just a trick I'm playing
You're questioning whether or not my feelings are genuine
The damage is still an open wound
My attempt to express my feelings has caused harm, and the pain is still present
You held my hands
You showed me affection
A friendly kiss and you were gone
You left without any attachment or commitment
Every single awaken hour
I think of you constantly, every waking moment
There is not a passing day
I can't go a day without thinking about you
I regret the thing I've told you
I wish I could take back the things I said to you
And if I could take it back
If it were possible, I would change what I said
Could I hear it in my voice
Could you tell, just from my tone, how I felt about losing you?
Living without you baby
My life feels incomplete without you
In a way I can't explain
I can't fully describe how I feel or the extent of my emotions
Made me see how we both changed
I realized that we're not the same as we were when we first started dating
Made me want you back again
My realization made me want to be with you again
I couldn't replace you
No one could ever take your place in my heart
Just a fool would try
Only someone foolish would attempt to replace the love you once gave me
And so I lost you
My foolishness led to the loss of our relationship
All I've shown was all in vain
Nothing I've done to show you my love seemed to work

Wonderful to hear this again. I remember Greg Edwards playing this for the first time in August 1983 on his Saturday evening Capital Radio show. Released in the UK on Bluebird Records (BRT3). 1983 was such a great year for Jazz Funk and Soul. Thanks for the memories,
