Only a fool Like fools before me I always think with my heart Only a fool That same old story Seems I was born for the part
It's a lesson that I've learned And a page I should have turned And I shouldn't cry, but I do Like an ordinary fool When his ordinary dreams fall through
How many times have I mistaken Good looks and laughs for bad news? How many times have I mistaken Love songs and laughs for the blues?
When a road I've walked before Ends alone at my front door I shoudn't cry, but I do Like an ordinary fool When his ordinary dreams fall through
It's a lesson that I've learned And a page I should have turned And I shouldn't cry, but I do Like an ordinary fool When his ordinary dreams fall through
