The biggest of fools for letting you go...collaboration with and vocals by Robert Pryor

THE BIGGEST OF FOOLS
By Patricia T. Bishop & Robert Pryor ©2004

It’s been a few years since the last time we talked
There’s something I’ve wanted to say
I don’t know how you feel, so I’ll take a chance
And mail out this letter today

I saw you last week having lunch in L.A.
It really took me by surprise
I didn’t have the nerve to come and say hello
Emotions left me weak inside

Chorus
You’re still so beautiful
Looking like the angel you are
I’m still the biggest fool
For ever letting you go
The biggest of fools by far

It was easy to see you’ve done well with your life
It showed throughout the glow of your smile
The sound of your voice played a sweet melody
I wished I could’ve lingered a while

But I hurried back to work and the rest of the day
I couldn’t get you out of my mind
The shine of your hair and sparkle in your eyes
Are turning back the hands of time

Repeat Chorus

That evening I imagined how we could have been
If I had not caused you so much pain
I hope you know I’m sorry and that every day I pray
You’ll forgive me, the fool that I am, that I am
