I Was a Fool to Care

I was a fool to care, I was a fool to care, I was a fool to care,
 but I don't care even if I was a fool- I'm still in love with you.
 Had I listened to the grapevine, I might have had my doubts.
 But I did my level best just to block them out.
 Cause love is so unwise and love has no eyes,
 And it took a while for a fool to see what his friends were on about.
 I was a fool to care, I was a fool to care, I was a fool to care,
 but I don't care even if I was a fool- I'm still in love with you.
 Imagining your face, it almost fills the empty space before me.
 I can see you eyes and almost hear your lovely lies.
 I wish I was an old man and love was through with me.
 I wish I was a baby on my mama's knee.
 I wish I was a freight train moving down the line,
 just keeping track of time without all these memories
 I was a fool to care, I was a fool to care, I was a fool to care,
 but I don't care even if I was a fool- I'm still in love with you, babe, yes, I am.
 I could have opened my eyes, I could have seen through your lies,
 I could have stood for no more, I could have walked out the door.
 But I was a fool to care, I was a fool to care.
 But I was a fool to care, I was a fool to care.
 You weren't nothing but a fool to care, just a country fool to care.
 You weren't nothing but a fool to care, just a country fool to care...
 
 I was a fool to care, I was a fool to care, I was a fool to care,
 but I don't care even if I was a fool- I'm still in love with you.
