I feel like a child
Feel as if I might have grown up wild
And I feel like a fool
Feel as if I didn't do well at school
And I keep expecting things that don't happen
Should but they don't
Could but they won't
And I don't see
No I don't see
Just don't understand
I must be such a foolish man
And I would laugh. If I could laugh
But it's so damn close to the bone
Would make you feel alone
And time just flies
Yes it does
Seems like fortunes moment
Passes
Blind to delight
And free from the weight of masses
But I keep expecting, things that don't happen
Should but they don't
Could but they won't
And I don't see
No I don't see
I just don't understand
I must be such a Foolish Man
