Ben Willms & Miranda Wilson - Fools (Fyedka & Chava's Song) Lyrics

My life here has been lonely
And yes, I have my cronies
But as you know, we rarely ever see things eye to eye
I am a Russian soldier so
They say I should be bolder, though
I cannot let my morals fold or keel on their side

I sometimes am excluded
But there's something I've concluded
What H. Heine as alluded to before
And I wonder if it's true for me
Each time I look at you for me
My life becomes a world of open doors

There are more fools in this world than there are people
And I used to think I wasn't one of them
'Til I got to knowing you, then I realized it is true
Quite undoubtedly, a fool's what I am

There are more fools in this world than there are people
And those words have never ever rung so true
A person's what I used to be, 'til circumstance brought you to me
And now we play the fools, me and you

I never will forget the day
When you came up to me to say
You marveled at my interest in books
Mama says it's a waste of time
To learn to read between the lines
Says "Take your nose out from the spine and cook"

"You'll never marry,"'s what she said
"Until you learn to make a bed
And take the broom from in the shed and sweep"
She said, "You'll never get a man
Who'd ever care, or understand
A girl who visits other lands when she is not asleep"

There are more fools in this world than there are people
And I always thought I was fool too
When the world is spinning fast with your parents in the past
What's a simple girl with knowledge vast to do?

There are more fools in this world than there are people
For the longest time, I thought I was alone
But now that I've been seeing you, the sky has turned from grey to blue
And we can play the fools until we're grown

Well Heinrich Heine once did say
A phrase that matters most today
He said that fools rule the world
I used to think I was exempt
And I was foolish and unkempt
That was the case until I met someone
A man
A girl
And now my mind is set at ease
I see it through and through
A fool's what I'm doomed to be
At least I'm doomed with you
