Had the time of my life,
 Before I could see,
 What was really going on,
 And what you really thought of me. 

But look at me now,
 Eyes open wide.
 Wiser today, and driving away,
 With my shattering pride. 

Now I'm nobody's fool,
 And it ain't no fun anymore.
 'Cause now that I'm nobody's fool,
 I'd rather be yours. 

You know what they say,
 The [bad word] sets you free,
 And that's just great,
 Unless you don't wanna be 

And you can keep the last laugh
 'Cause I don't like how it feels
 When you save face, but your heart breaks,
 Well you've cut the wrong deal 

And now I'm nobody's fool
 And I miss the way it was before
 Don't want to be nobody's fool
 I wanna be yours, yours, yours.

 'Cause I'm a fool anyway
 Whether I leave or stay
 So why oh why did I have [bad word]  

I wanna make you laugh
I wanna make you smile
 I wanna feel like I belong to someone 
 [bad word]  

Now I'm nobody's fool
 It ain't no fun anymore
 Don't wanna be nobody's fool
 I wanna be yours, yours 

Don't wanna be nobody's fool
I wanna be yours.
