Lyrics

Fool for You Anyway

[Verse]

Well I miss you honey

A little more every day

And I know if I kissed you

You'd be coming back home to stay

Because I know I was wrong

But how long do I have to pay?

[Pre-Chorus]

You know you belong here beside me

[Chorus]

I'm a fool for you anyway

I'm a fool for you anyway

I'm a fool for you anyway

[Verse]

Well I cried for you so long

My river of tears ran dry

And I tried to be so strong

But grew weaker as time went by

[Pre-Chorus]

You know your love left a mark on me

I don't think it will fade away

I'll sit here and wait til you come home

[Chorus]

’Cause I'm a fool for you anyway

I'm a fool for you anyway

Fool for you anyway

[Lead]

[Pre-Chorus]

You know your love left a mark on me

(On me)

I don't think it will fade away

I'll sit here and wait til you come home

[Chorus]

’Cause I'm a fool for you anyway

’Cause I'm a fool for you anyway

I'm a fool for you anyway

[Outro]

Fool for you anyway

Fool for you anyway

Because I'm a fool for you anyway

A fool for you anyway

Fool for you anyway

I'm a fool for you anyway
