[Intro]
(A fool am I)
(A fool am I in love)

[Verse 1]
A tear fell when I saw you
In the arms of someone new
A tear fell when you left me
All alone and feeling blue
You know a tear fell when you told me
That your love was not for me
I didn't miss these teardrops
But I missed you constantly

[Chorus 1]
That's why I'm
(A fool am I)
(A fool am I in love)

[Verse 2]
The teardrops that you stepped on
As you danced across the floor
You know they were crushed like my poor heart was
When you walked out of my door

[Chorus 2]
I said a tear fell when you told me
That the flame in your heart died
Darling, have I lost you
Like these teardrops from my eyes
[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2]

[Outro]
I've got to be a
(A fool am I)
But I'm so glad I'm a fool
(A fool am I in love)
I'm a fool in love
