Is this the way I wanna live   Trying hard not to miss   Anything life might give   Why do I keep on running round   Chasing my tail, never exhale   How come I never settle down      Will I ever rest my head   At ease, at peace and in need of nothing else   I ask of you      If only fools are satisfied   Take my sanity away   If only fools, fools are satisfied   Let me be a fool      When will I ever lose this drive   I try but I never seem to win this fight   I'm like a house without a soul   The emptiness keeps me going   Maybe you can make me whole      And sooth my head   At ease, at peace and in need of nothing else   I ask of you      If only fools are satisfied   Please take my sanity away   If only fools, fools are satisfied   Let me be a fool      If only fools are satisfied   Take my sanity away   If only fools, fools are satisfied   Let me be a fool for life
