Fool
Von Sell Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Fool am I
Now you have lost me
I won′t know
Fool my heart is racing fast
I know it's time

And if I′m gonna be afraid (if I'm gonna be)
Will you love another man?
Will you find another rush, oh my
And I don't know what else to say (No, I don′t know)
I know I′m not the only way
I know you feel it in your bones
You don't need me anymore

Oh if I stopped and left a little light on
And if I cared, I′d be motionless again
Baby doesn't seem to mind a little light touch
And if I cared, I′d be devastated again

Fool am I
Now you have lost me
I won't know
Fool my heart is racing fast
I know it′s time

And I'm just looking for a feeling, destination, love and reason
I'm gonna be entrenched in these dealings
And if I′m playing with your heart, I didn′t notice that you left
For what it's worth, it′s just the same
It didn't mean a thing

Oh if I stopped and left a little light on
And if I cared, I′d be motionless again
Baby doesn't seem to mind a little light touch
And if I cared, I′d be devastated once again

And everywhere you look
His heart is just a souvenir now
Stop, running is the easy thing to do
Everything you touch goes it's own mysterious way
Maybe I misspoke
I meant to say you're nothing like yourself

Words are fuel
My mind is loose
I see your ease
Maybe stars don′t loom as large as you, my dear

Fool am I
Now you have lost me
I won′t know
Fool my heart is racing fast
I know it's time

Oh if I stopped and left a little light on
And if I cared, I′d be motionless again




Baby doesn't seem to mind a little light touch
And if I cared, I′d be devastated again

His heart is now only a keepsake


Stop, running is the easy thing to do
Cease, fleeing is the simpler option


Everything you touch goes its own mysterious way
Every object you interact with follows its own enigmatic path


Maybe I misspoke
Perhaps I said something incorrectly


I meant to say you're nothing like yourself
What I intended to convey is that you have changed


Words are fuel
Words provide energy


My mind is loose
My thoughts are scattered


I see your ease
I observe your calm demeanor


Maybe stars don′t loom as large as you, my dear
Maybe celestial bodies are not as significant as you, my beloved

It's the first song I've heard of Von Sell. It can't explain this accident experience. I can't say just... what the.... It just like compressing my all feelings, senses, tendencies and tastes that I can't even explain in my native language. A single song represent everything... I don't know. This music KIILIN ME.
