Sheets Of Egyptian Cotton

Source language: English

Ships crossing like ghosts
In the night
Names are remembered
Faces in sight
Take what we can and
Need to survive

Was exchanging kisses
And you
Leave me scarred
And confused

I'll wait and see
What unfolds
Don't have what I need
Girl now I love you so

Na na na na na na na na
Sheets of Egyptian cotton
Na na na na na na na na
Sheets of Egyptian cotton
Na na na na na na na na
Sheets of Egyptian cotton

Could any native English please clarify the meaning of "What are fools" (2nd verse, 3rd stanza)? I can't figure out for sure what it means.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Goncin

I loved that book!!

I think "what are fools" means "those that are fools"

Those that are fools don't have what I need

Otherwise said, "fools have nothing to offer me"

But this is conjecture, since the English is not grammatically correct!!
