Sometimes we make stupid mistakes and let someone go for selfish reasons only to feel like the world's greatest fool.

Instrumentation Tony Graham Guitar/Vocals/Lyricist "Singer Songwriter Tony Graham has had the ability to magically mesmerize every audience I have seen him perform before. At a Tony Graham performance, while you are inadvertently wandering through past, present and future thoughts, you can’t help but wonder if the late Jim Croce hasn’t re-incarnated himself into the mind and soul of Graham. Or is it the reclusive Cat Stevens that keeps tickling your ears? Has James Taylor and Dan Folgelberg had their magical hands in on the honing of this guys talent? Yet what you are actually hearing and experiencing is something fantastically unique and fresh. Tony Graham is one of the best new songwriters of our day. Someone is going to grab a hold of this guy and run. Wouldn’t it be fun to be a small part of that history?" Mark Tenoi - Streetlight Magazine Http://singersongwritertonygraham.com “A unique and original American voice”. The voice echoes Cat Stevens, Jim Croce and Dan Folgelberg during their soulful, musical best. But Tony Graham somehow remains his own man, with his own memories, stories, and visions. He is not only well worth hearing, He is well worth hearing again and again Forest Benning - Nightlife Entertainment Graham, has been building an ever growing following for years by sculpting songs packed with spirit and passion. Dorine Bordin DB productions INC The Next American Idol Reviewer: Simon Cowell Tony Graham could easily be the next American Idol or the next Nashville Star. Hope to see him in the competition.

Story behind the song
I wrote this song in the studio while recording my album "Kick The Can." I had no intention of recording it until my Co/Producer insisted that we lay some tracks down an check it out. It turned out good I think.
Lyrics
"Worlds Greatest Fool" © 2003 What a fool I was to let you go. Now there’s nothing that I would not do To turn the pages back but I just didn’t know. That I would be too blind to see, How much this heart would be missing you, Now I’m falling on my knees. And I pray to God that he can turn back time, And to please give back the heart that once was mine. And just to dream of you is all I do. But from the mirror staring back at me, Stands the worlds greatest fool. Well I know that you’ve been waiting, And quietly anticipating, For that day I’m back into your arms. But this is just my wishful thinking, A part of me that can’t let go. Still fighting for the future realizing I was wrong. Oh it’s just my wishful thinking, When I lie alone in bed at night. The memories flow through me, When I turn out the light. Just to dream of you is all I do. But from the mirror staring back at me, Stands the worlds greatest fool. From the mirror staring back at me, Stands the worlds greatest Worlds greatest….Fool © 2003 Tony Graham All Rights Reserved
