lyrics

Lost my foot on the banks of a river
So I drifted just like a drifter
Where I was faded from view
Where I was faded from view

Felt so good to let go of my past
Though it happened really kinda fast
Memories they don’t sting anymore
Like dried blood from a cut long before

Ode to the fools and the freaks and the brokenhearted
Don’t look too hard into the darkness

Always falling on the floor
Or bangin on a locked door
Looking too hard for more
Fools for love, fools for love

Out of the river and into the sea
I’m sad as hell cause we’re not together
And now I’m drunk on too much wine
Oh well you know it’s too much wine drinking time

I sing this song for the freaks and the tenderhearted
Don’t look too hard into the darkness

Help me to keep it light
Help me to stay afloat
Fools for love, fools for love
