about

I originally used this song for a microphone test (as you can see on my YouTube channel). But a lot of people in the audience want to purchase a CD with this song, so I thought I would add it to the album!

lyrics

You say all the right words and the knowledge behind them
is as solid as that oak there in the ground.
You know I am naïve and I run on intuition
let the feelings in my stomach make their rounds.

Oh hey – I don’t listen to wise men
Oh nay – nor the treasures that they say
I’m a fool – and a fool I will remain.
I am a fool to love you anyway.
You warned me but I love you anyway.

When our story plays out according to your calculations
You’ll need no re-calibration of your heart.
But I’ll be sweetly drowning in the tears of revelation
Knowing you offered me salvation from the start.

Oh hey – I don’t listen to wise men
Oh nay – nor the treasures that they say
I’m a fool – and a fool I will remain.
I am a fool to love you anyway.
You warned me but I love you anyway.


Ohhh….
Even the wisest of men can be wrong
I’m crossing my fingers that you made a mistake.
Despite all my knowledge my feelings stay strong
All that’s left for me to do is wait…

Oh hey – I don’t listen to wise men
Oh nay – nor the treasures that they say
I’m a fool – and a fool I will remain.
I am a fool to love you anyway.

Oh hey – I don’t listen to wise men
Oh nay – I hope they’ll be wrong someday
I’m a fool – and a fool I will remain.
I am a fool to love you anyway.
You warned me but I love you anyway.

It’s foolish but I love you anyway.
