Only a fool like fools before me   I always think with my heart   Only a fool, that same old story   Seems I was born for the part      It's a lesson to be learned   And a page I should have turned   I shouldn't cry but I do, like an ordinary fool   When his ordinary dreams fall through      How many times have I mistaken   Good looks and laughs for bad news?   And how many times have I mistaken   Good looks and laughs for the blues?      When a road I walked before   Ends alone at my front door   I shouldn't cry but I do, like an ordinary fool   When his ordinary dreams fall through      When a road I walked before   Ends alone at my front door   I shouldn't cry but I do, like an ordinary fool   When his ordinary dreams fall through
