i'd still play the fool

though you told me lies and left when i cried

took my trusting heart and tore it apart

i'd run back to you if you'd just say when

if i had it to do all over again

though you gave your charms to so many arms

loved me for a day then threw me away

i'd still play the fool to the winter end

if i had it to do all over again

it's the old old story of the moth and a flame

though you've burned me darling i want you just the same

i'd still play the fool to the winter end

if i had it to do all over again

i'd still play the fool to the winter end

if i had it to do all over again

i'd still play the fool i'd still play the fool
