I heard a rumor in the evening air
Someone whispered you never cared
My friends won't look me in the eye
Took some time, but I realized

I was a fool
I gotta tell you, I got to tell ya
I was a fool for you
I gotta tell ya, I gotta tell ya
I was a fool

You let me think that your love was true
Wasn't anything I wouldn't do for you
I should have known that you led me on
I turned around and you were gone

I was a fool
I gotta tell you, I got to tell ya
I was a fool for you
I gotta tell ya, I gotta tell ya
I was a fool

I heard a rumor in the evening air
Someone whispered you never cared
My friends won't look me in the eye
Took some time, but I realized

I was a fool
I gotta tell you, I got to tell ya
I was a fool for you
I gotta tell ya, I gotta tell ya
I was a fool
