Fool
Taylor DeBlock Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Started with a rush I was a bad boy
Baby put your feet up on the dashboard
We gon' take a trip forget a passport
Driving, flying, lying on the cold floor
Would've changed it all if I could fast forward
Hidden from my sight you were the bad one
Crying, lying, fighting for the last word
'Cuz I'm older now
And much colder now
And you might say I was nothing but a
Fool, running, chasing nothing
Hoping you would learn to love me
Gave you something, all for nothing
Darling tell me did you love him
Is he calling, are you sorry
Was it worth it, even hardly
Now I wonder, will she wander
Since you taught me that she's gonna
That she's gonna
Learn from the mistake is what they told me
This is how it happens when you're growing
Listen to the words of the homies
But it's solving nothing, I'm broken
Leave it all behind and stay focused
Just a couple months you won't notice
Til you find another and hope she doesn't try it before you notice
'Cuz I'm older now
And much colder now
And you might say I was nothing but a
Fool, running, chasing nothing
Hoping you would learn to love me
Gave you something, all for nothing
Darling tell me did you love him
Is he calling, are you sorry
Was it worth it, even hardly
Now I wonder, will she wander
Since you taught me that she's gonna
That she's gonna
Ooh
Running, chasing nothing
Running, chasing something
Running, chasing nothing
Running, chasing nothing
Running, chasing something
Running, chasing nothing
Ooh, ooh, ooh, aah
Fool, running, chasing nothing
Hoping you would learn to love me
Gave you something, all for nothing
Darling tell me did you love him
Is he calling, are you sorry
Was it worth it, even hardly
Now I wonder, will she wander
Since you taught me that she's gonna
That she's gonna
The lyrics to Taylor DeBlock's song "Fool" depict a narrative about a past relationship. It starts out with the singer realizing that he was a "bad boy," but despite that, his lover puts her feet up on the dashboard, and they go on a trip without needing a passport, whether through driving, flying, or lying down on the cold floor. However, the singer admits that he would have changed everything and turned away from God if he could have fast-forwarded the relationship with his former lover. He believes that he was the one who was crying, lying, and fighting for the last word, rather than the bad guy that he used to be. The song's chorus features the singer pleading with his former lover about whether she ever loved him, and if she is still with her new man. The song speaks of feelings of regret, abandonment, and broken trust.
