Fool for You
There are times when faith
And common sense do not align
When hardcore evidence of you
Is hard to find
And I am silenced in the face
Of argumentative debate
And it's a long hill
It's a lonely climb
'Cause they want proof
They want proof of
All these mysteries I claim
'Cause only fools would want
To chant a dead man's name
Maybe it's true, yeah, but
I would be a fool for you
(A fool for you)
All because you asked me to
A simpleton who's seemingly naïve
I do believe you came and
Made yourself a fool for me
I admit that in my darkest hours
I've asked what if
What if we created some kind of
Man made faith like this
Out of good intention
Or emotional invention
And after life is through
There will be no you
'Cause they want proof
Of all these miracles I claim
'Cause only fools believe
That men can walk on waves
Maybe it's true, yeah, but
I would be a fool for you
(A fool for you)
All because you asked me to
A simpleton who's seemingly naïve
I do believe you came and
Made yourself a fool for me
Unaware of popularity
And unconcerned with dignity
You made me free
That's proof enough for me
I would be a fool for you
(A fool for you)
Only if you asked me to
A simpleton who's only thinkin' of
The cause of love
I will speak Jesus' name
(A fool for you)
If that makes me crazy
They can call me crazed
I'm happy to be seemingly naïve
I do believe you came and
Made yourself a fool for me
A fool for you
