W hat A Fool Believes

Words and music by

Michael McDonald and K(mny Lnggins
He came from
Somewhere

Back in her
Long ago
The sentimental fool
Don't see

Trying hard to
Recreate
What had yet to
Be created

Once in her life
She musters
A smile
For his
Nostalgic tale

Never coming near
What he wanted
To say
Only to realize
It never

Really was
She...
Had a place

In his life
He...
Never made her

Think twice
As she rises
To her apology

Anybody else
Would surely know
What a fool
Believes...
He sees

The wise man
Has the power
To reason away
What seems...

To be
ls always better
Than nothing

Than nothing
At all
Keeps sending him
Somewhere

Back in her
Long ago
Where he can
Still believe

There's a place
In her life
Someday
Somewhere

She will return
She had a place
In his life

He never made
Her think twice
As she rises
To her apology

Anybody else would
Surely know
What a fool
Believes...

He sees
The wise man
Has the power

To reason away
When love can
Come and

Love can go
Why can't love,
Return wise power?

Who's got the power?
Oh no...
I believe she's
Never gone away

Ah yes...
