Fool Lyrics

And so it was deemed prudent
We should walk upon the earth
We should mourn our dying
We should celebrate our births

And as the darkness ushers in
The howling from the north
There is daily reckoning
It's a balancing of sorts

And I can't call it easy
This thing no one will survive
Though we are all breathing
There are few of us alive

And we will stand here perishing
In hopeless circumstance
And the wisdom of the world
Will tell us not to take the chance

And I say
I will be a fool for You any day
I don't claim to understand why
You were pleased to do it this way
But I will be a fool for You anyway

I can't explain Your promises
But I can claim them anyway And I will be a fool for You any day

As we hug this circle
And it spins us round and round
May we hesitate to trust in all
The knowledge we have found

All the theories, all the postulates
And the lot of what we've learned
We can never overestimate
How fast it all will burn

And I say
I will be a fool for You any day
I don't claim to understand why
You were pleased to do it this way
But I will be a fool for You anyway

I can't explain Your promises
But I can claim them anyway
And I don't need a miracle
I don't need a sign, I don't need tomorrow
Because I'm alive and doing fine today
And I will be a fool for You any day
