| By the time you read this letter
|
| I’ll be outta your life
|
| Gone forever more
|
| But guess I’ll survive
|
| I’m gonna leave my records
|
| And a forwarding address
|
| Ain’t you glad honey
|
| That I’m offa your chest
|
| You said you wanted Paris
|
| Rome 'n' St. Tropez
|
| Perfume by Chanel
|
| And a ring by Cartier
|
| But I gave you headaches
|
| With my old fashioned ways
|
| But that’s all irrelevant
|
| To what I’m tryin' to say
|
| I’m a fool for you baby
|
| Pride won’t let me stay
|
| I’m a fool for you honey
|
| and I’ll come back any day
|
| Guess I’ll always love you all my life
|
| You can keep your Streisands
|
| Bardots and Lorens
|
| You’re my everything
|
| But now you’re my end
|
| It may be over
|
| But just before I go
|
| I can make a new start
|
| But I can’t mend a broken heart
|
| So when I read about you
|
| In all the national press
|
| On the arm of so and so I may get depressed
|
| Cause I tried to love you
|
| But didn’t fit in I came on the dust
|
| I’ll leave on the wind
|
| I’m a fool for you baby
|
| My pride won’t let me stay
|
| I’m a fool for you honey
|
| I’ll come back any day
|
| I’m a fool for you baby
|
| I don’t care what your friends say
|
| I’m a fool for you honey
|
| And that’s the way I’ll stay
|
| I guess I’ll always love you all my life |
