Fool

Seems my own arrogance
has knocked me off my feet again
When you know I’m crawling to
you as fast as I can
First teach me to walk
and then I’ll learn to dance for you
Like an honest clumsy clown
tripping along the way

‘Cause I am reaching for you
but my arms aren’t long enough
and I am running to you
if I could go a little faster
and I am crying to you
but I can’t hear my own voice
and I am waiting for you
and trying not to fall asleep now

'Cause I’m comfortable dancing
weightless for you
I’m stumbling closer to you
and I’m tumbling over my pride
I will be a fool
for you

What are you thinking
as you look down on me
are you frustrated
with my inconsistency
worn and treated
I can find the will to get back up
or maybe all of this is simply amusing

‘Cause I am reaching for you
but my arms aren’t long enough
and I am running to you
if I could go a little faster
and I am crying to you
but I can’t hear my own voice
and I am waiting for you
trying not to fall asleep now

I’m comfortable dancing
weightless for you
I’m stumbling closer to you
and I’m tumbling over my pride
I will be a fool

I’m comfortable dancing
weightless for you
I’m stumbling closer to you
and I’m tumbling over my pride
I will be a fool
for you

And I’m comfortable dancing
weightless for you
I’m stumbling closer to you
and I’m tumbling over my pride
I will be a fool
for you
