Arif Mardin - What A Fool Believes lyrics

[Verse 1] He came from somewhere back in her long ago The sentimental fools 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, hey, only to realize It never really was [Chorus] He had a place in her life She never made him think twice As he rises to her apology Anybody else would surely know He's watching her go And what a fool believes, he sees No wise man has the power, oh yeah, to reason away, now What seems to be Is always better than nothing, oh yeah Nothing at all, nothing at all [Verse 2] Keeps sending him somewhere back in her long ago He can still believe there's a place in her life Hey, someday, somewhere, she will return [Chorus] He had a place in her life, oh oh She never made him think twice As he rises to her apology Anybody else would surely know He's watching her go, oh yeah What a fool believes, he sees No wise man has the power, oh yeah, to reason away, yeah And what seems to be Is always better than nothing, oh oh oh oh oh yeah Nothing at all, nothing at all [Bridge] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Get the funk, get it now Get the funk, get it now Get the funk, get it now (whoop!) Get the funk, get it now Get the funk, get it now Get the funk, get it now (whoop!) Get the funk, get it now Get the funk, get it now Get the funk, get it now (whoop!) Get the funk, get it now [Outro] (What a fool believes, he sees) uh, uh (No wise man has the power) no wise man has the power (To reason away) oh, to reason away, yeah (What a fool believes, he sees) what a fool believes, oh, he sees No wise man has the power To reason away, yeah, yeah (What a fool believes, he sees)
