He came from somewhere back in her long ago
The sentimental fool don't see trying 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 he wanted to say
Only to realize it never really was
She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice
As she rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely know

He's watching her go

What a fool believes he sees

No wise man has the power
To reason away
What seems to be
Is always better than nothing
And nothing at all... keeps sending him
Somewhere back in her long ago
Where he can still believe there's a place
In her life... someday... somewhere
She will return

She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice

As she wishes to her apology
Anybody else would surely know

He's watching her go
What a fool believes he sees
No wise man has the power to reason away
What seems to be
Is always better than nothing
There's nothing at all
What a fools believe
