Fool Like Me Lyrics - Singles - Ambrosia

Have mercy on a fool like me 

My eyes were open but I just couldn't see 

The way the world works without honesty 

Honestly, I was blind 

When all my heroes have been laid to rest 

And all my idols I have come to possess 

And I'm still looking for some true happiness in my heart 

Nothing here is certain 

We chase a shadow of our own dream's design 

And wonder why it takes so long 

And wonder just where we went wrong 

We hold a candle in the wind to light our way 

Go lightly in your judgement please 

I didn't know the world was filled with such greed 

I'm only asking let your heart intercede 

And I know they still exist 

They say you learn something new every day 

I want to learn to forget all this dismay 

At finding out the way that some folks play 

Only they's gonna win ... 

Nothing here is sacred 

The golden calf we worshipped has fallen from its shrine And left us standing here stranded 

Our only hope's to abandon 

These foolish dreams that we've pursued for far too long 

Have mercy, have mercy ...
