55 What A Fool I Was

55  What A Fool I Was


What a fool I was; what a fool I was
I did not know; no, I did not know
What people had known since long ago
That love is not without the woe

I knew her only for a little while
But she had form and she had style
And she had beauty, charm, and grace
And she had also a lovely smile

What a fool I was; what a fool I was
I did not know; no, I did not know
That people had known since long ago
That love is not without the woe

But I should’ve known if I were smart
That she was a siren without a heart
And that one day when the time was right
She was going to leave and simply depart

What a fool I was; what a fool I was
I did not know; no, I did not know
But what does it matter if I didn’t know
For it wouldn’t have helped, I loved her so
