Ever been stuck in a relationship too long? Ever felt like a fool in love? Put up with things you know you shouldn't? Sometimes we end up on Fool's Lane. Thank goodness for detours.
lyrics
"Fool's Lane"
Verse 1
There's this thing about love
That I just don't get
One day you're searching for love
And the next you're through with it
Once the romance fades there come the arguments
You'd rather be alone than put up with it
Hook
Now I'm stuck on Fool's Lane
From this three year traffic jam
You forever changed who I am
But that's what detours are for
uh uh uh
uh uh uh
Verse 2
This thing bout love it will melt your heart
Um, melts it right to stone when things go wrong
Oh the person you loved is not the person who lied
Oh shift (shift) reverse (reverse) put the car in drive
Hook
Baby
Um Oh
Bridge -
I was always excusing your bad decisions
Always accepted your cruel intentions
You were the person I love now the person who lied
You built me up just to let me down
When I gave more of my self than I ever have
Hook
What life is for
What joy if for
What love is for
What hope if for
What peace is for
What love is for
