Nat “King” Cole
A Fool Was I
[Verse 1]
A fool was I
To fall in love the night I found you
I built my daydreams all around you
Oh, what a fool was I

[Verse 2]
You made me cry
But with the tears my love grew stronger
Without you every night grew longer
Oh, what a fool was I

[Bridge]
The more your lips didn't want me
All the more I wanted you
I loved you so much
And, darling, I still do

[Verse 3]
A fool was I
To sit and cry my empty heart out
When just your voice could make me start out
To be a fool again

[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
A fool was I
To sit and cry my empty heart out
When just your voice could make me start out
To be a fool again
