What A Fool Believes Lyrics

What A Fool Believes

What a Fool Believes
The Doobie Brothers
- words and music by Michael
McDonald and Kenny Loggins

He came from somewhere back in her long
ago
The sentimental fool don't see
Tryin' 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 he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely
know
He's watching her go

But what a fool believes he sees
No wise
man has the power to reason away
What seems to be
Is always better than
nothing
And 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 he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely
know
He's watching her go

But what a fool believes he sees
No wise
man has the power to reason away
What seems to be
Is always better than
nothing
There's nothing at all
But what a fool believes he
sees...
