You've got my heart

But I can't let you keep it, babe

'Cause I won't be sure that I can stay

Don't waste your time

Trying to pull me in

'Cause I'm just a mess you don't wanna fix

Just promise me one thing: that you won't forget

But for now kiss me softly before I say

And don't be a fool

And wait on me, darling

I know that you don't wanna hear this

But I'm always on the move

And don't be a fool

And say that you love me

'Cause you'll find a man

Who will stand by your side

And will be there for you

And just know that I do

Oh, I really like you babe

And I wanna be there for you

For the rest of your days

But I know that you'll hurt

If we keep on doing this

So I'm sorry to end this now

But I know that it's for the best

Don't be a fool

And wait on me, darling

I know that you don't wanna hear this

But I'm always on the move

And don't be a fool, yeah

And say that you love me

'Cause you'll find a man

Who will stand by your side

And will be there for you

I don't think you'll ever understand

I don't think you'll ever understand

I know that you don't wanna hear this

But darling, please, don't be a fool

Oh, and don't be a fool, yeah

And wait on me, darling

I know that you don't wanna hear this

But I'm always on the move, yeah, oh

Just don't be a fool, yeah

And say that you love me, girl

'Cause you'll find a man

Who'll stand by your side

And will be there for you

And don't be a fool

And wait on me darling

I know that you don't wanna hear this

But don't be a fool
