Fool for You

[Intro]

Hey baby

I gotta leave ya

[Verse 1]

By the time you read this letter, I'll be outta your life

Gone forever more but guess I'll survive

I'm gonna leave my records and a forwarding address

Ain't you glad, honey, that I'm off of your chest?

You said you wanted Paris, Rome and St. Tropez

Perfume by Chanel and a ring by Cartier

But I gave you headaches with my old fashioned ways

But that's all irrelevant to what I'm tryin' to say

[Chorus]

I'm a fool for you, baby

Pride won't let me stay

I'm a fool for you, honey

And I'll come back any day

I guess I'll always love you all my life

Hey baby

[Verse 2]

You can keep your Streisands, Bardots and Lorens

You're my everything but now you're my end

It may be over but just before I go

I can make a new start but I can't mend a broken heart

So when I read about you in all the national press

On the arm of so and so, I may get depressed

'Cause I tried to love you but didn't fit in

I came on the dust, I'll leave on the wind

[Chorus]

I'm a fool for you, baby

My pride won't let me stay

I'm a fool for you, honey

I'll come back any day

I'm a fool for you, baby

I don't care what your friends say

I'm a fool for you, honey

And that's the way I'll stay

I guess I'll always love you all my life

[Outro]

So long, baby
