Lyrics
"I'm a fool to want you
I'm a fool to want you
To want a love that can be true
A love that's there for others too
I'm a fool to hold you
Such a fool to hold you
To seek a kiss, not mine alone
To share a kiss the Devil has known
Time and time again, I said I'd leave
Time and time again, I went away
But then, would come a time where I would need you
And once again these words I have to say
I'm a fool to want you
Pity me, I need you
I know it's wrong, it must be wrong
But right or wrong, I can't get alone
Without you
I can't get alone
Without you"
