The Shadow Of A Fool

(album: The Return Of The Fabulous Hofner Bluenotes - 2008)

I hear the angels scream
They know the devil's out
I sure don't know at all
What this is all about

I need my true love's arm
I need my true love's kiss
No matter whose side you're on
Nobody needs all this

And if there is a God
Well, they've broken all his rules
And left us here fighting
For the shadow of a fool

Now I'm trained to go
Into the darkest night
And in the name of the angels
Stand for what is right

But so much is wrong
In this hell of blood and fear
Nobody knows no more
The reason we are here

And if there is a God
Well, they've broken all his rules
And left us here fighting
For the shadow of a fool
