The Fool That I Am

Someone who acts unwisely
Who’s easily manipulated and daft
That is what a fool is
And when it comes to you
A fool is what I am

Make me promises you won’t keep
Keep me on your strings
And make me dance for you
Shine upon me your ray of hope
For a fool is what I am

They say you’re a lion and I'm a lamb
An easy prey for a vicious beast
But they don’t know about you and me
For you’re no lion and I’m no lamb
A fool is what I am

I’ll be your fool and you be you
Whisper to me sweet nothing
Even if it’s because
You really have nothing to say
Because a fool is what I am

I’ll be your fool and stay by your side
But I have just one request:
Make me not love you
Because now it just hurts
For a fool in love is what I now am
