This time your story had better be good
Or I may leave you like I know I should
You say you've missed me while you've been away
Where d'you go? - and who with? - that's what I'd like to know
You have the nerve to run off like you do
You don't deserve all the love I gave you

Fool am I! What a poor little fool am I!
Oh why can't I be strong enough, long enough
To say that we're through
Fool am I! Just a poor little fool am I!
But I can't get it understood
You're no good
What can I do?
I can't stop loving you

Tell me you love me
Take me and show me
Make me forgive you again

[Instrumental]

Fool am I! What a poor little fool am I!
But I can't get it understood, you're no good
What can I do?
I can't stop loving you.
Oh, tell me you love me
Take me and show me
Make me forgive you again

Fool am I! What a poor little fool am I!
Oh why can't I be strong enough, long enough
To say that we're through
Fool am I! Just a poor little fool am I!
But I can't get it understood
You're no good
What can I do?
