lyrics

Only a fool would have led this boy astray.
Only a fool would have let me walk away.
Only a fool would be so blind,
Only a fool is so unkind,
Only a fool would drive me away.

Only a fool would ever play such games.
Only a fool would fill me with disdain.
Only a fool would keep playin',
Only a fool who just can't win.
Only a fool would drive me away.

Only a fool would make me feel so bad
Only a fool would forsake what we had
Thinking it through, I've found that you
Are only a fool.

Only a fool would lay it all to waste.
Only a fool would have been so damned two-faced.
Only a fool would ever be
Only a fool only to me.
Only a fool would drive me away!
