Damien Rice Fool Lyrics

If you leave me now
It's not that I can't take it
It's just that somehow
I think you'd break it
So much beyond repair
Like pulling out my hair
And poisoning the roots
A gun that never shoots again
And if you leave me now
And take him deep within your throne
Like you did when you were coming home
And you did again in Mexico
And again before you go
And I believed your lies

So turn and walk away
I've over spoken
Said all that I can say
I know that I can kneel
And I could cry
And I know that I could show you how I died
But what good would it do?
Give the world another fool
So if you're gonna stay
Don't just say it
Stay, and really stay
I don't want any more goodbyes
Any more disguise
No more tossing coins
Or him between your loins
And if you're gonna stay
I'll place you high upon a hill
And with my hands
I'll build a tower in your name
And you will do the same
Won't you my love?
Won't you my love?
Won't you my love?

Or turn and walk away
I've over spoken
Said all that I can say
I know that I can kneel
And I could cry
I know I can show you how I died
But what good would it do ?
Give the world another fool

So turn and walk away
I've over spoken
Now what more can I say?
I know that I can kneel
An kiss your feet
Walk ahead and clear the streets
So you don't have to meet
And what good would it do ?
Give the world another fool
Just sitting on this stool
Well I'm close
I'm close to giving up on you

Sitting on this stool
Well I'm close, I'm close
I'm close to give up on you
