The Doobie Brothers-What a fool believes
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2VZ5DfCY6kY&feature=related

He came from somewhere back in her long ago
The sentimental fool don't 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
He's 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 there's 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
He's 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
There's nothing at all
But what a fool believes he sees...

4. Yeah, shows you can do really funny stuff with just a good script
and some spirited performances and not a whole lot else... I think they spent most of the budget renting the harpoon.

3. I Was At That Concert...
It was at UC Santa Barbara (where I worked). As far as I'm concerned, the best music produced by the DB was after they added Michael Macdonald. The soul he brought to the band was just what they needed.
