Jack Savoretti Lovely Fool Lyrics

In the silence of your mind
You should ask yourself
What it is that makes you who are
In the valley of your soul
You should take a walk
But you never go that far

It's strange
That I should know you better than you do
You lovely fool
So strange
That everybody sees your light shine through
Except for you

In the window of your past,
There's a broken pane
Reflecting all the things that make you sad
In the shadow of your fear
There's no hiding place
So why do you run there?

It's strange
That I should know you better than you do, You lovely fool
So strange
That you should want to live your whole life through
Broken and blue

You're a martyr for the cause
What the cause is I'm not sure
A show that ends with no applause
Except for yours

In the church of all my dreams
I'll say a prayer
That one day you'll believe

It's strange
That I should know you better than you do,
You lovely fool
So strange
That everybody sees your light shine through
Except for you
You lovely fool
