Sophomore (stripped) from Sophomore EP by Eddie Cole
A sophomore is a second year student. It's also the name given to a musicians follow up record.
It's a novice who should have now learnt a thing or two.
A wise fool at best or a sophisticated moron at worst!
This song came about after a friend was talking about the meaning of sophomore and the idea took hold in my imagination.
In essence that the humility to love and be loved is learnt through adversity.

Lyrics
Suffer no more
My sweet sophomore
Be my wise fool
And I will go back to school
To learn how to cry
Suffer it so
To be this way
There are things I cannot change
Like prophecy and destiny
The writings on the wall
For you
You and I
Teardrops of goodbye
You and I
Suffer no more
My sweet sophomore
Be my wise fool
And I will break all the rules
Child I'm the fool
Stay with me
Till I awake
Leave me not alone
My heart is rent
The night far spent
And worlds are torn apart
For you
You and I
Teardrops of goodbye
You and I
Teardrops of goodbye
The heart is given and forgiven
So it goes
You have loved and been loved
God only knows
What was given and forgiven
To hold you in my...
Suffer no more
My sweet sophomore
Be my wise fool
And I will go back to school
To learn how to cry
