Lyrics: Sentimental Fool
Album: Love Story
Artist: Lloyd Cole
 

The more i learn the less i know
Could you make mine straight absolute?
The more i fail the less i try
Ask not of me the reason why

Oh, my sentimental fool
Have i got a tale for you
Oh, my sentimental fool

The woman i love is not content
The life i made – it ain’t what i meant
The space i’m in is filled with love
The state i’m in is pitiful

Oh, my sentimental fool
Have i got a tale for you
Oh, my sentimental fool
Have i got a tale for you…

But, when she calls my name
We’re almost happy – she’s almost like you
Yes, when she calls my name
We’re almost there, man – she’s almost like you

The longer i live the less i believe
And all i lost is all i need
The life i made is filled with regret
And i can’t tell the half of it
The woman i love has lost her faith
And i just watch as she fades away
The space i’m in is filled with love
The shape i’m in ain’t beautiful

Oh, my sentimental fool
Have i got a tale for you…
I`m draining the glass for you

Do you see my girl?
She’s almost like you…
