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
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
