INTRO: (once) There's no fool like an old fool I'm livin' proof of that For years it seems my head has been Just a place to hang my hat Shoulda known when I met you You could never be true There's no fool like an old fool 'Cause I'm still in love with you You came to me so sweetly And you took me by my hand You said you had to leave me But you'd still be my best friend And if I live to be a hundred I will never understand If you had to leave me why'd you leave me For an older man I've known love from a distance And I've felt love up close You'll be comin' back someday That's what hurts me the most By then I'll be so sick and tired I won't have time for you Then you'll know how it feels To be an old fool too There's no fool like an old fool I'm livin' proof of that For years it seems my head has been Just a place to hang my hat Shoulda known when I met you You could never be true There's no fool like an old fool 'Cause I'm stil in love with you
