Fools Like Me Lyrics

Cover art for Fools Like Me lyrics by Vanessa Carlton

My take on it is this:

A romantic relationship where you just let yourself love them. You love them completely, and that's that. The cracks could refer to their faults, or the faults in the relationship. The fool holds onto hope of the relationship until it breaks in front of them

"At least I can say I was not afraid I loved you all the way And I'd pick the fool any day."

They'd rather love than be overly cautious and closed off.
