Well, I wonder, wonder, wonder just why it is
That I sit around here and I cry
Is it just because I'm too weak to take the loss
And walk away knowin' that I really care down deep inside?
Or is it just the fool in me
That keeps me hangin' on?
When I should have been gone
Is it just the fool in me
That won't let me live without you?
Oh, honey, I think it's just the fool in me
Baby, I think it's just the fool in me
Darlin', I think it's just the fool in me
That keeps me hangin' on
I can't seem to help myself at all
And I have promised, I have promised, I made promises to myself
I wouldn't stay no longer
But every time I say I've had enough
I start to step and my shoes get stuck
And all I seem to do is stand there and say I want you
Maybe it's the fool in me
That keeps me hangin' on
When I should have been gone
Maybe it's the fool in me (Fool in me)
That won't let me live without you
Oh, honey, I think it's just the fool in me
Baby, I think it's just the fool in me
Darlin', I think it's just the fool in me
That keeps me hangin' on
I can't seem to help myself at all
And I love you
Oh, how I love you
Ah, look how close I came
I had myself talked into it again
Ah, just when I feel I'm on my way
All I ever seem to do is stay
I think it's just the fool in me
That keeps me hangin' on, hangin' on
I should have been gone
Just the fool in me
That won't let me live without you
Oh, honey, I think it's just the fool in me
Baby, I think it's just the fool in me
Darlin', I think it's just the fool in me
Darlin', I think it's just the fool in me (Baby)
Ain't nothing I can do about it, do about it (Fool in me, baby)
Ain't nothing I can do about it, do about it (Fool in me, baby)
I can't seem to help myself at all (Fool in me, baby)
I think it's just the fool in me
