The fool in me. 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? I walk away knowing that I really care down deep inside. Or is it just the fool in me ( is it just the fool in me ) Keeps me hanging on When I should have been gone? Is it just the fool in me ( 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, darling I think it's just the fool in me, Keeps me hanging on I can't seem to help myself. ( at all ). And I have promised, I have promised I made promises to myself I would stay no longer But every time I say “I've had enough” I start to step but my shoes get stuck And all I seem to do is stand and say “I want you, girl”, Maybe it's the fool in me ( maybe it's the fool in me ) Keeps me hanging on …. And I love, I love you, I love you, I love you Ah, look how close I came!, Ah, tell myself just don't do it again Ah, just when I feel I'm on my way All I ever seem to do is stay.
