Remember the summer we sat in the rain

Counting the cars on the Southern bound trains

And just for a moment

Our gazes would meet

Lips just an instant from kisses so sweet



So what ever happened

You turned away

And I never thought of the right thing to say

So many times i have thought of the kiss

We never shared

Now you’re telling me this



You could have fooled me

I had no idea

That you were so very in love with me, dear

You did not show it

And now it seems cruel

You could have fooled me

I’m that much a fool



You were a brother, a friend, and a man

Who i thought I knew like the back of my hand

Now you’re here waiting

Your eyes wet with tears

Confessing a love after so many years



Well you could have fooled me

I had no idea

You were so very in love with me, dear

You did not show it

And now it seems cruel

You could have fooled me

I’m that much a fool



Well i waited

And wondered

What seems like a lifetime and then

i loved you like a brother

And cherished you so as a friend



Remember the winter you went away

Something inside of me died on that day

And now i am married

I play by the rules

I cannot go with you

I'm that much a fool



But you could have fooled me

I had no idea

That you were so very in love with me, dear

You did not show it

And now it seems cruel

You could have fooled me

I’m that much a fool
