Just Another Fool

When everything's been said and done

It ain't about the wars you won

Or the gold you carry to your grave

Well I for one, I've got my dreams

My two good feet and a boat downstream

And a world awaiting in the distant haze

The fires burn and smoke and fly in sparks

So many things lay hidden in the dark

I guess I'm just another fool

Drifting on a broken sea, no compass and no rules

Some things are better left alone

The ocean deep, the desert sun

The loneliness that no one can outrun

I once was true, but now I fear

All that's left of dreams and prayers

The heart makes promises it don't mean to keep

The fires burn and smoke and fly in sparks

So many things lay hidden in the dark

I guess I'm just another fool

Drifting on a broken sea, no compass and no rules

I'm getting out of here

The wind is blowing strong, my dear

I'll button up my coat and leaving you here for a while

And I'm coming back when the moon is new

I'll bring you roses and presents too

No sad goodbyes, no long adieus

The fires burn and smoke and fly in sparks

So many things lay hidden in the dark

I guess I'm just another fool

Drifting on a broken sea, no compass and no rules

I'm on my way, oh Lord

The wind is blowing, all aboard

And in a while I will be by your side

'Cause I'm coming back when the moon is new

I'll bring you roses and presents too

No sad goodbyes, no long adieus
