Fool, you didn't have to hurt her

Fool, you didn't have to lose her

Fool, you only had to love her

But now her love is gone



Fool, you could have made her want you

Fool, you could have made her love you

Fool, you only had to love her

But now her love is gone



Gone now, the love and laughter

See yourself the morning after

Can't you see her eyes are misty

As she said good-bye



Fool, you didn't have to hurt her

Fool, you didn't have to lose her

Fool, you only had to love her

But now your love is gone



Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Fool, you only had to love her

But now her love is gone



Fool, you could have made her want you

Fool, you could have made her love you

Fool, you only had to love her

But now her love is gone



Fool, you didn't have to hurt her

Fool, you didn't have to lose her

Fool, you only had to love her
