Smart Fool

take my hand
gimme a sign
nobody seems to know
where to draw the line
everybody talking ’bout what they want
but I ain’t fooled easily 
and that’s a start
now that’s a start

gimme a sign
tell me the news
don’t need nobody
just need your truth
everybody talking ’bout sympathy
but what about the love
of a sinner like me?

so many years 
it took me so long
so many dark nights
all I got is this song
everybody talking, 
the word on the street
they say follow your heart
no matter where it leads
we’re all looking for the same thing
it’s nothing new
everything seems possible
with you

lets lay in the sand
look at the stars
talk all night
about our troubled hearts
honey I know
it’s scary sometimes
a thousand billion kisses 
in our dreams tonight
forever yours,
always mine
finally feel like
it’s gonna be alright

take my hand
look me in the eyes
we can go anywhere
or we can feed the lies
if the only thing 
you ever get from me
the only thing I can give
takes a smart fool to see
takes a smart fool like me

take my hand
gimme a sign
nobody seems to know
where to draw the line
everybody talking ’bout what they want
but I ain’t fooled easily 
and that’s a start
now that’s a start

gimme a sign
tell me the news
don’t need nobody
just need your truth
everybody talking ’bout sympathy
but what about the love
of a sinner like me?

so many years 
it took me so long
so many dark nights
all I got is this song
everybody talking, 
the word on the street
they say follow your heart
no matter where it leads
we’re all looking for the same thing
it’s nothing new
everything seems possible

lets lay in the sand
look at the stars
talk all night
about our troubled hearts
honey I know
it’s scary sometimes
a thousand billion kisses 
in our dreams tonight
forever yours,
always mine

it’s gonna be alright

takes a smart fool to see
takes a smart fool like me
