Darlin'... You know you've got the cruelest streak You only say you love just to Keep me weak Your loving words have kept me here for Many years I'm leavin...I'll face the tears You know that No-one's gonna be a fool forever Ain't no-one gonna be a fool for life No-one's gonna be a fool forever This fool is gonna say goodbye Beautiful plans are hard to forget You promised me a family A little girl with braids skipping Off to school A part of you and me will never be You know that No-one's gonna be a fool forever Ain't no-one gonna be a fool for life No-one's gonna be a fool forever This fool is gonna say goodbye No-one's gona be a fool forever This fool is gonna say goodbye Darlin I'm leaving you, but with regrets Everything I have for you is gone There's nothing left You had me apologize for things I didn't do To keep my self-respect I'm leaving you You know that No-one's gonna be a fool forever Ain't no-one gonna be a fool for life No-one's gonna be a fool forever This fool is gonna say goodbye
