What a Fool Believes (with Michael McDonald) - Live

She came from somewhere back
 Years long ago
 Sentimental fools don't see
 Tryin' hard to recreate
 What had yet to be created
 Once in her life
 She musters a smile
 For his nostalgic tale
 Never coming near
 What she wanted to say
 Only to realize
 It never really was
 She had a place in his life
 He never made her think twice
 What a fool believes
 He sees
 No wise man has the power
 To reason away
 What seems
 To be
 Is always better than nothing
 Than nothing at all
 Keeps sending him
 Somewhere back in her long ago
 Where he can still believe
 There's a place in her life
 Somehow, somewhere,
 She will return
 She had a place in his life
 He never made her think twice
 As he rises to her apology
 Anybody else would surely know
 He's watching her go
 But what a fool believes
 He sees
 No wise man has the power
 To reason away
 What seems to be
 Is always better than nothing
 Nothing at all
