Chas Bruns – Fools Ballad lyrics

This one’s got some undertow. Some undertow. I can feel it all around. Now. Now.
This one’s gonna drown us all. Oh drown us all. I see it going down. Down. Down.

But I would stand beside you. Right beside you, as it goes.
I’d stand beside you as it goes.
Well I would stand beside you. Right beside you, as it goes.
I’d stand beside you, as it goes. Hey! Ho!

The flames have never burned so tall. Oh burned so tall. I feel them all around. Now. Now.
The rafters can’t contain them all. Contain them all. I’ve seen it coming down. Down. Down.

But I would stand beside you. Right beside you, as it goes.
I’d stand beside you as it goes.
Well I would stand beside you. Right beside you, as it goes.
I’d stand beside you, as it goes. Hey! Ho!

The ground has never felt so cold. Oh felt so cold. I feel it all around. Now. Now.
The wood box can’t sustain it all. Sustain it all. We’re six feet underground. Now. Now.

But I would stand beside you. Right beside you, till you go.
I’d stand beside you till you go.
I would stand beside you. Right beside you, till you go.
I’d stand beside you, till you go. Hey! Ho!

Never knew quite what I was to you. Never knew quite what I was supposed to do.
But I knew if I was next to you, that I’d be one step closer.

Cause I would stand beside you. I would stand beside you. I would stand beside you.
Just to be one step closer.
