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 I shouldn't cry but I do Like an ordinary fool When her 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 walked before Ends alone at my front door I shoudn't cry but I do Like an ordinary fool When her ordinary dreams fall through It's a lesson that I've learned And a page I should have turned I shouldn't cry but I do Like an ordinary fool When her ordinary dreams fall through It's a lesson that I've learned And a page I should have turned I shouldn't cry but I do Like an ordinary fool When her ordinary dreams fall through
