Lyrics

The stage is set so let the curtain rise

As for the ending my dear that's for me to decide

You may think you know the role that I play

You'll be so surprised when it's not that way

I won't play the fool anymore

This time I walk out the door

And leave you standing here all alone

This time I find on my own

Someone who loves me

'Cause I, I won't play the fool anymore

No more dramatic scenes, only a short goodbye

To all the lonely nights to all the good times

I found it in my heart to love

Now I must find the strength to go

Too late for happy endings

Now it's time you know

It's time you know, it's time you know

I won't play the fool anymore

This time I walk out the door

And leave you standing here all alone

This time I find on my own

Someone who loves me

'Cause I, I won't play the fool anymore

So let me dry your eyes, it's gonna be alright

But understand me when I say

It's time that we make a change

You don't have to lie no more, try no more

'Cause baby one thing's for sure

I won't play the fool anymore

I won't play the fool anymore

This time I walk out the door

And leave you standing here all alone

This time I find on my own

Someone who loves me

'Cause I, I won't play the fool anymore
