The Fool

There was a time...
When I was locked up, lied to, put down, and
Thrown into a corner of your world.
When you swept me aside...
Time after time, and then you'd give me just a little
Taste of your love and tell me I was still your girl
And when you wouldn't let me stay, on the coldest winter day
Oh, but how you made me feel inside it didn't matter anyway
I was a fool, fool, fool, but I liked it
Wasn't nothin' gonna stop me, cause I liked it
I was a fool, fool, fool, and I liked it
Wasn't nothin' gonna get in the way
Of lettin' my baby spoil my day
There was a time...
When I was heart-broken, soul searching, trying to find
My way back home in the dark.
When you left me behind...
And I was too embarrassed to tell my friends, I thought
Maybe you didn't really mean it... this time
And when you wouldn't let me in, and you swore it was the end
Then in a few days time you'd change your mind, and we'd start it all over again!
I was a fool, fool, fool, but I liked it
Wasn't nothin' gonna stop me, cause I liked it
I was a fool, fool, fool, and I liked it
Wasn't nothin' gonna get in the way
Of lettin' my baby spoil my day
And when you wouldn't let me stay, on the coldest winter day
Oh, but how you made me feel inside it didn't matter anyway!
CHORUS
I was a fool, fool, fool, but I liked it
Wasn't nothin' gonna stop me, cause I liked it
I was a fool, fool, fool, but I liked it
Wasn't nothin' gonna stop me, baby, I liked it
I was a foo-oo-ool, but I liked it
Wasn't nothin' gonna get in the way
Of lettin' my baby spoil my day...
