Fool
Ken Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I am a fool
To love someone who don't love me
I am a fool
To love someone who don't care
She loves another man
It's plain to understand
That when I'm around
She just pretends

I am a fool
For I break the golden rule
I am a fool
To give her everything that's true
She loves another man
It's plain to understand
That when I'm around
She just pretend, now
Alright

I am a fool
For I break the golden rule
I am a fool
To give her everything that's true
She loves another man
It's plain to understand
That when I'm around
She just pretends




Oh, what a fool
Fool in love
