Even a Fool Would Let Go Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's funny how love goes
Because I know this could never work out
But honey, how love grows
Even though there's no reason to doubt
This can never be
You keep saying it's wrong
Neither one of us is free
Still I want to hold on

[Chorus]
When even a fool would let go
Because he knows that there's no use trying
Even a child would say no
When he knows that he'll end up crying
Tell me now, is it wise holding you
When even a fool would let go?

[Verse 2]
Love has no reason
Like the words in a song that don't rhyme
My love has no season
I just know that it's there all the time
Baby, just you and me
I can't believe that it's wrong
Thinking about you and me
Just makes me want to hold on
[Chorus]
When even a fool would let go
Because he knows that there's no use in trying
Even a child would say no
When he knows that he'll end up crying
Tell me now, is it wise holding you
When even a fool would let go?

[Outro]
Tell me now, is it wise holding you
When even a fool would let go?

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
