Well I’m not just a fool
I sat alone for an hour and thought.
I know I broke the rules,
I knew it there on the spot.
But what I did was alright
And I knew all along;
Cos in spite of the warning I got
This time, dad, you’re wrong
I’ll prove it to you
No I’m not just a fool
I’m not just a fool
No I’ll prove it to you
Well I can’t tell you why,
Might not know why till after it’s through.
But at least I got to try
Then you might understand too
But love is why I go back
Like I knew all along
The fact is I even love you
But this time dad you’re wrong
I’ll prove it to you
I’m not just a fool
I’m not just a fool
No I’ll prove it to you
