Fool Lyrics - Bobby Bare

I was born and raised 

As an eastern girl in a western world 

I was told to choose 

To choose to be what I chose to be 

Speaking impartially 

There doesn't seem to be a place for me 

But when I look inside I find 

A place to run to hide 

I was born to love 

A distant land and a rising sun 

I was born to love this 

Green and pleasant land 

Which way should I turn? 

'cause I seem to fall towards burning 

But when I look inside I find the place 

To cry, to fly, to die 

You and I, born as fools now 

You and I think, think we rule now 

Now I see the world 

As an ancient place as a smiling face 

I can choose to be 

What I want to be if I choose to be 

Speaking impartially 

If the smile grows cold without me 

I know a secret place to cry, to fly, to try 

You know I'm burning in a flame now 

Now I see the world 

As an ancient place as a smiling face 

Now I see the world 

As a place where I can run to hide to 

Which way should I turn? 

'cause I seem to fall towards burning 

But when I look inside I find the place 

To try, to hide, to fly 

You and I, born as fools now 

You and I think, think we rule now 

You and I, born as fools now 

You and I think, think we rule now
