I can't understand
All the feelings in my heart
When I follow their command
They start tearing me apart
I've been drifting
With the changing tide too long
I need someone
Who can show me right from wrong

Don't you know
I've been fooled by a feelin'
Had a cloud before my eyes
Don't want to be ruled by a feelin'
I can't tell the truth from lies
And I know who I believe in
And His words still make me wise
Don't want to be fooled by
Or ruled by a feelin'

Well, I heard the sages say
(What did they say?)
If it feels good, baby, do it
But I just can't live that way
'Cause my heart can see right through it
My emotions rise and fall
Like shifting sand
But I found the rock of truth
On which I stand
Don't you know
I've been fooled by a feelin'
Had a cloud before my eyes
Don't want to be ruled by a feelin'
I can't tell the truth from lies
But I know who I believe in
And His words still make me wise
Don't want to be fooled by
Or ruled by a feelin'

Good feelings come, good feelings go
And leave me feeling sad
And then I learned to hear His voice
I found I never had to be...

Fooled by a feelin'
Had a cloud before my eyes
Don't want to be ruled by a feelin'
I can't tell the truth from lies
And I know who I believe in
And His words still make me wise
Don't want to be fooled by
Or ruled by a feelin'

(Fooled by a feelin')
Don't be fooled, don't be fooled
(Fooled by a feelin')
Don't be fooled, don't be fooled
(Fooled by a feelin')
Fooled by a feelin'
(Fooled by a feelin')
Forever fooled by a feelin'
(Fooled by a feelin')
Fooled by a feelin', fooled by a feelin'
(Fooled by a feelin')
Fooled by a feelin', fooled by a feelin'...
