what a fool believes （Michael mcdonald/kenny loggins）
He came from somewhere back in her long ago
The sentimental fool dont see
Tryin hard to recreate
What had yet to be created once in her life
She musters a smile
For his nostalgic tale
Never coming near what he wanted to say
Only to realize
It never really was
She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice
As he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely know
Hes watching her go
But what a fool believes he sees
No wise man has the power to reason away
What seems to be
Is always better than nothing
And nothing at all keeps sending him...
Somewhere back in her long ago
Where he can still believe theres a place in her life
Someday, somewhere, she will return
She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice
As he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely know
Hes watching her go
But what a fool believes he sees
No wise man has the power to reason away
What seems to be
Is always better than nothing
Theres nothing at all
But what a fool believes he sees...

Michael McDonald got his big break in Southern California singing with Steely Dan in 1974. He later became a superstar as a lead singer/keyboardist with The Doobie Brothers from 1975 to 1982, contributing such megahits as "Takin' It To The Streets," "It Keeps You Runnin'," "Minute By Minute," and the triple-Grammy'-winning #1 smash "What A Fool Believes." Post-Doobies, McDonald scored gold with his 1982 solo debut LP If That's What It Takes and its #4 single "I Keep Forgettin' (Every Time You're Near)." His career has since taken him back to the rootsier rhythms he explores today. The Very Best Of Michael McDonald spotlights the legendary artist's greatest solo sides, including all of the hits from his own albums, movie soundtracks, and collaborations with James Ingram, Patti LaBelle, Kenny Loggins, Quincy Jones, Burt Bacharach, David Foster, Peter Wolf, Joe Walsh, Vince Gill, Alison Krauss, John Tesh, and Don Was-plus a previously unissued version of Stevie Wonder's "Higher Ground" taken from the ex-Doobie's 1990 Take It To Heart sessions. The accompanying liner notes feature new quotes from McDonald himself.
哈哈,居然在网上发现这歌的中文译词...
只有傻子才相信 杜比兄弟合唱团
他从某个地方回到她身边已经有很长的时间了
感情脆弱的傻子没有看见
而努力重新建立在她的生命中曾经创造过的
她勉强的微笑
为了他乡愁式的流言蜚语
从未接近的听到他想说些什么
仅仅了解到他从未实际的表达过
她，曾经占据他生命里重要的地位
他，绝不让她有任何的考虑
当他向她提出抱歉时
其它任何人将会明白
他看着她离去
只有傻子才相信而他看清了
没有一个睿智的人有理由离开
看起来像是如此
但总是比什么都没有的好
再也没有事继续驱使他…
从某个地方回到她身边已经有很长的时间了
仍然相信他在她的生活中占有一席之地
有朝一日，在某个地方，她会回来
她，曾经占据他生命里重要的地位
他，绝不让她有任何的考虑
当他向她提出抱歉时
其它任何人将会明白
他看着她离去
只有傻子才相信而他看清了
没有一个睿智的人有理由离开
看起来像是如此
但总是比什么都没有的好
其实什么事也没发生
只有傻子才相信他所看到的

说起Steely Dan，去年一天俺在GuitarCenter乱弹琴，结果后面一中年哥们顺着俺的和声就开始Solo，俺心生敬佩，互捧够友一番后， 与他进行了友好而富有建设性的交谈。 哥们说他自学成才，有个乐团叫Ajavu，最擅长SteelyDan的曲目，俺暗自称奇，与他约定来年此时门口垃圾桶旁再会，于是互留名号，各驾破车而去。
这下吃喝嫖赌几个月过去， 一天跟朋友的美国老公聊起音乐， 突然想起这个键盘手，于是晚上股沟出他们网站，竟是旧金山湾区乐队擂台赛两年霸主，听了他们的录音，感觉比原唱都好听，不禁感慨鬼子精神文明之昌盛
