Poor Little Fool

I used to play around with hearts
That hastened at my call,
But when i met that little girl
I knew that i would fall.
Poor little fool, oh yeah,
I was a fool, uh huh..
She played around and teased me
With her carefree devil eyes,
She'd hold me close and kiss me
But her heart was full of lies.
Poor little fool, oh yeah,
I was a fool, uh huh..
She told me how she cared for me
And that we'd never part,
And so for the very first time
I gave away my heart.
Poor little fool, oh yeah,
I was a fool, uh huh..
The next day she was gone
And i knew she'd lied to me,
She left me with a broken heart
And won her victory.
Poor little fool, oh yeah,
I was a fool, uh huh..
I'd played this game with other hearts
But i never thought i'd see,
The day that someone else would play
Love's foolish game with me.
Poor little fool, oh yeah,
I was a fool, uh huh..
