Lyrics
Fool that I am
For falling
In love with you
And a
Fool that I am
For thinking
You loved me too
You took my heart
Then played the part
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Of little coquette
And all my dreams
Just disappeared
Like the smoke
From a, a cigarette
And oh, yeah, yeah
Fool that I am
For hoping, oh
You'd understand
And thinking you
Would listen to
And, oh-oh-oh
The things
The things I had planned
But we couldn't see eye to eye
So, darling
Darling, darling
This is goodbye
But I still care
But I still care
And oh
Fool that I am
Oh-oh, but I still care
Fool that I am
