The Fool

When the curtain closes
When the lights begin to fade
When the show is over
And the magic has been made

He waits for the stars to pass
For another day to come
So, he can play the fool again
Go foolin’ everyone

Yeah, he’ll make you laugh
He will make you cry
He’ll give you a reason
To never doubt why

Why we are here
And what all this means
If life is real
Or, if it’s a dream

He’ll make you forget
All of your fears
Just for one moment
Just for three cheers

Make you remember
Life is a jewel
Just for one moment
‘Cos he is the fool

Just for one moment
‘Cos he is the fool

When the act is over
The fool has played his part
He waits for another day
For another show to start

Rehearsing every moment
So, he doesn’t miss a line
Then he can be a perfect fool
Time after time

Yeah, he will make you smile
When you are sad
Make you feel better
When you feel bad

Whoever you are
Wherever you’re from
Just for one moment
The blues will be gone

He’ll make you forget
All of your fears
Just for one moment
Just for three cheers

Make you remember
Life is a jewel
Just for one moment
‘Cos he is the fool

Just for one moment
‘Cos he is the fool

The man remains a mystery
With a few tricks up his sleeve
No one knows who is he
Or, what the fool believes

The man remains a mystery
It might always stay that way
Who is the man behind the mask?
A mystery he’ll stay

He’ll make you forget
All of your fears
Just for one moment
Just for three cheers

Make you remember
Life is a jewel
Just for one moment
‘Cos he is the fool

Just for one moment
‘Cos he is the fool
