Once there lived a fool
Many moons ago
He was such a fool
Ask me, I should know

I still remember the way he would cry
Each time you said goodbye
And walked in the rain
Almost insane
But please don't ask me why

Once there lived a fool
But, as wise men say
Even fools in love
They wake up one day

There's no more sadness
No tears in his eyes
I'm so glad he's free
Once there lived a fool
And that fool was me

There's no more sadness
No tears in his eyes
I'm so glad he's free
Once there lived a fool
And that fool was me
