Intro verse 1 What did I see, fool that I was? Oh, a goddess with wings on her heels. All my illusions projected on her; The ideal that I wanted to see. What did I know, fool that I was? Oh, little by little I learned My friends were dismayed To see me betrayed, But they knew they could never tell me. verse 2 What did I care, fool that I was? Oh, little by little I burned, Maybe sometimes, there might be a flaw, But how pretty the picture was back then. What did I do, fool that I was, To profit from youthful mistakes? It's shameful to tell How often I fell In love with delusions again. Solo x2 What did I do, the fool that I was, To profit from youthful mistakes? So shameful to tell Just how often I fell In love with illusions again! Oh a goddess with wings on her heels.
