I Was a Fool

I Was a Fool - Roy Orbison/Ken Cook

I was a fool

I only wanted you

I don't lose my blues

When I pretend you're with me

Though I make believe

I'm still alone

When I think of you

My empty arms remind me

That my one true love has gone

I was a fool

That's why I cried over you

I was a fool

I only wanted you

When I smile so gay

Everybody knows

That I've lost my love

But that's the way it goes

When I think of you

My empty arms remind me

That my one true love has gone

I was a fool

That's why I cried over you

I was a fool

I only wanted you
