Wisdom Of A Fool

B.J. Thomas · Souvenirs [2009]

Can grow cool

Listen to the wisdom of a fool



When you take her poor heart

And you do something to it

And you think to yourself

Listen to the wisdom of a fool



Now I had a love

Just the same as you

And I was a fool

Not to see



But you still have time to say

Your love her

I'm
