Lyrics - Sentimental Fool by Lloyd Cole

The more
I learn the less
I know
Could you make mine straight absolute?
The more
I fail the less
I try
Ask not of me the reason why
Oh, my sentimental fool
Have
I got a tale for you
Oh, my sentimental fool
The woman
I love is not content
The life
I made - it ain’t what
I meant
The space
I’m in is filled with love
The state
I’m in is pitiful
Oh, my sentimental fool
Have
I got a tale for you
Oh, my sentimental fool
Have
I got a tale for you...
But, when she calls my name
We’re almost happy - she’s almost like you
Yes, when she calls my name
We’re almost there, man - she’s almost like you
The longer
I live the less
I believe
And all
I lost is all
I need
The life
I made is filled with regret
And
I can’t tell the half of it
The woman
I love has lost her faith
And
I just watch as she fades away
The space
I’m in is filled with love
The shape
I’m in ain’t beautiful
Oh, my sentimental fool
Have
I got a tale for you...
I`m draining the glass for you
Do you see my girl?
She’s almost like you...
