For Shame Of Doing Wrong

Richard Thompson

It seems like a lifetime since I saw you 
Lover lover I’ve been away too long 
When I see lovers holding hands and sighing 
I hang my head for shame of doing wrong 

Bus wheels spinning, song birds singing break my heart 
Take me back to old remembered days 
Remind me of the times we spent together 
Times before we went our separate ways 

I wish I was a fool for you again 
I wish I was a fool for you again 
I wish I was a fool for you again 

I’m sorry for the things I’ve said, the things I’ve done 
I’m sorry for the restless thief I’ve been 
Please don’t make me pay for my deceiving heart 
Just turn up your lamp and let me in 

I wish I was a fool for you again 
I wish I was a fool for you again 
I wish I was a fool for you again 
I wish I was a fool for you again 
I wish I was a fool for you again 
I wish I was a fool for you again 
I wish I was a fool for you again 
I wish I was a fool for you again 
I wish I was a fool for you again 
I wish I was a fool for you again 
I wish I was a fool for you again
