Only A Fool.
I lock up at night
Turn off the light
And go to bed,
But I lay awake
Until day break
With you in my head.
In silent darkness
Lost and helpless
I reach for you,
Then I start to cry
And wonder why
I was such a fool.
chorus
Only a fool could choose to be cold
And ignore you
Only a fool would refuse to hold
And explore you,
I let my foolish pride cast love aside
And push us apart
I'm only a fool
A fool who broke his own heart.

The jester reaps his rewards
A standing ovation with loud applause,
But friends stare in disbelief
When I tell them we're through
And I know everything
They are thinking
Is true.
chorus
Only a fool could choose to be cold
And ignore you
Only a fool would refuse to hold
And explore you,
I let my foolish pride cast love aside
And push us apart
I'm only a fool
A fool who broke his own heart.
