Oh it takes a fool to love you
It takes a fool to love you
It takes a fool to love you
Oh and I’m just the fool for you

I really did it to myself I guess
I saw you standing in that [bad word] dress
Oh call the press and say my life is a mess
Because I must confess to you

That it takes a fool to love you
It takes a fool to love you
It takes a fool to love you
Oh and I’m just the fool for you

Fool me once and shame on you
Twice it’s shame on me
But fool me baby for the rest of my life
And I’ll be happy, happy as a broken man can be

‘cause it takes a fool
It takes a fool
It takes a fool to love you
Oh and I’m just the fool for you
