Fool On My Knees


Fool On My Knees

Tilly Rivers


Reaching out into the air
Seeing the colours that aren’t really there
When will I learn that love is a fable
And stop falling on my knees like a fool

Raise my hands to the sky
Clenched fists begging why
Why am I such a fool to believe?
Why am I such a fool to still care?

It does not seem to matter how much you hurt me
I still have a spot that won’t let you go inside me
I’m not a silly person without backbone or brain
Why am I such a fool when it comes to you?

Let him go my mind screams
Let him go my spirit begs from the pain
Yet my heart hangs on like a fool
A fool on my knees

Tilly-you always have a way with words, a magic weaver of feelings so cleverly expressed. We have all been a fool when it comes to love-it is so nice to know we are not alone in the shame of our heart.
