The Fool lyrics

(chorus)

No, no don't let me play the fool

'Cause I can't really love you by the rules

For my love is sweet and free

No, no don't make me play the fool

For this thing you ask oh it's so cruel

Can't you see it isn't me?

What you ask of me is just to be your clown

Someone you can lead about and show around

Why make of our love a children's puppet show?

Why can't I simply love you in the way I know?

What I ask of you is not to turn away

Listen to the words that I am trying to say

Our love could be a new adventure every day

'Cause I love you, love you, love you, love you

(chorus)

All I want from you is a little sympathy

Try to understand how it would be for me

All my hopes and dreams would now be bound and tied

Any hope of freedom would have surely died

I want to know that I can fall in love again

And be sure that my love will never know restraint

So please just let me love you in the way I know

'Cause I love you, love you, love you, love you

(chorus)
