The Shadow of a Fool Songtext

von Chris Rea

I hear the angels scream
They know the devil's out.
I sure don't know at all
What this is all about.
I need my true loves arm
I need my true loves kiss.
No matter whose side you're on
Nobody needs all this.

And if there is a God
Well, they've broken all his rules
And left us here fighting
For the shadow of a fool.

Now I'm trained to go
Into the darkest night.
And in the name of the angels
Stand for what is right.
But so much is wrong
In this hell of blood and fear
Nobody knows no more
The reason we are here.

And if there is a God
Well, they've broken all his rules
And left us here fighting
For the shadow of a fool.
