I Played the Fool

Southside Johnny

Like the child who's soul's a flame that loves to burn

I'm just the kind of guy who never learns

I guess you had to go

Why was I the last to know?

I played the fool, girl

I did just what you expected

I played the fool

And you're making it so hard to leave this time

I see so much when I look in your eyes

I just can't help myself, I'm hypnotized

It's my turn to walk away

But, baby, I'll be back someday

I played the fool, girl

I did just what you expected

I played the fool

And you're making it so hard to leave this time

It's my turn to walk away

But baby I'll be back someday

I played the fool, girl

I did just what you expected

I played the fool, girl

And you're making it so hard to leave this time

It's my turn to walk away

But baby I'll be back someday

I played the fool, girl

I did just what you expected

I played the fool
