Fools and thieves Lyrics

And she says "Oh, don't you know?"
And she says "Oh, can't you see?"
That I have no where else to go
And no other place to be
And what curse could be worse
Than this present state of misery

And she says "Yes, I guess it's love
Except for the part where I fall"
And she says "Less love is better than
Not being loved at all,
And it's too late to wait
For someone else to call"

The charlatan's dine on the insecure kind
And they feast on the naive
They promise the cure for loneliness
While they plan to deceive
I do not care what you say
Or what you may believe
For as long as there are fools
There will be thieves

And she says "Yes, I feel sometimes
That I've been left here on my own
And I'm haunted by echoes
That fill this empty home
And the years pass so fast
And I do not want to die alone"

And she's surrounded by all her doubts and her insecurities
And they just won't grant reprieve
But I have seen her eyes when they are convinced otherwise
But she still can't seem to leave
But she still can't seem to leave
