|
He came from somewhere back |
|
In his long ago |
|
Sentimental fools don't see |
|
Tryin' hard to recreate |
|
What had yet to be created |
|
Once in their lives |
|
She musters a smile |
|
For a nostalgic tale |
|
Never comin' near what he wanted to say |
|
Only to realize |
|
It never really was |
|
She had a place in his life |
|
He never made her think twice |
|
As he rises to her apology |
|
Anybody else would surely know |
|
He's watching her go |
|
But what a fool believes |
|
He sees |
|
No wise man has the power |
|
To reason away |
|
What seems |
|
To be |
|
Is always better than nothing |
|
And nothing at all |
|
Is sending him somewhere back |
|
In his long ago |
|
Where he can still believe |
|
There's a place in his life |
|
Someday, somewhere |
|
She will return |
|
She had a place in his life |
|
He never made her think twice |
|
As he rises to her apology |
|
Anybody else would surely know |
|
He's watching her go |
|
But what a fool believes |
|
(I know she's never going away) |
|
He sees |
|
No wise man has the power |
|
(Ain't nobody got it) |
|
To reason away |
|
What seems |
|
(Nobody's gonna tell him) |
|
To be |
|
Is always better than nothing |
|
And nothing at all |
|
He's making a fool believe |
|
He sees |
|
No wise man has the power |
|
(Ain't nobody got it) |
|
To reason away |
|
What seems |
|
(Nobody's gonna tell him) |
|
To be |
|
Is always better than nothing |
|
And nothing at all |
