The Fool In Me - Kenny Rogers

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
