Lyrics

I don't wanna be a fool I don't wanna be a fool for love No, no, I won't, no, hey, no I know that people do go through changes, yeah But this just don't make no damn sense If we're gonna keep sayin' we love one another, yeah, yeah Well, then we better stop fightin' and arguin' 'Cause baby, I've heard "I'm sorry" Too many, many times before, now I know better It hurts to hold on to this kind of love even more No, I'm not crazy I won't be a fool, a fool for our love 'Cause I know I'd rather be alone than be here unhappy I'm not gonna choose, choose for you 'Cause I know I'd rather be alone than be here unhappy, yeah I know it's time to go when I feel lonely When I'm layin' in your arms and it don't feel right, oh 'Cause every time I feelin' up you try to bring me down So I feel good knowin' I don't need you around 'Cause I know, I know that I can feel this bad all by myself, yeah And maybe that's my best bet Startin' this time I'm gonna think selfishly And never depend on someone else for keepin' me happy, oh, no, no I won't be a fool, a fool for love 'Cause I know I'd rather be alone than be here unhappy, oh no I'm not gonna choose, choose for you 'Cause I know I'd rather be alone than be here unhappy, oh I, I, I, I won't be a fool, a fool for love 'Cause I know I'd rather be alone than be here unhappy I'm not gonna choose, choose for you 'Cause I know I'd rather be alone than be here unhappy, ooh yeah I'm never gonna be a fool for love I'd rather be alone, just give it up Don't make no sense to be in love And be here unhappy, oh no It might feel good on a lonely night But layin' in your arms today ain't right I'd rather lose you than lose my mind And be here unhappy with you baby Hey no, no, no, no, no, no I don't wanna be a fool I don't wanna be a fool
