I will be a fool today
I'm scared of what tomorrow brings
Tears will flow, I'll beat myself
But I'm too proud to ever change
Lord give me the strength to be
A man who could never be loved
Fearful, reckless, lazy, thoughtless,
Charmless traits betide my mind
Money buys the easy life
The easy life
Ain't easy at all
Pride is kept from questioning
His gatekeeper is arrogance
Wise men preach with healing words
The wicked teach cutting remarks
Beware romantic gestures
Are investments in your vanity
I hope I'm not too despicable
To bring ruin to love's purity
No sound of love will deafen me
No sound of love will deafen me
No resounding gong will echo here
No resounding gong will echo here
When I'm in turmoil
When I'm in turmoil
No sound of love will deafen me
No sound of love will deafen me
No resounding gong will echo here
No resounding gong will echo here
I will be a fool today
I'm scared of what tomorrow brings
Tears will flow, I'll beat myself
But I'm too proud to ever change
