Fool For Your Love
Neil Young · Other Songs - Neil Young
I tossed and I turned
Lost in these dreams of you
since the day I learned
How could you give yourself
to another man
A fool for your love,
fool for your love.
Fool for your love.
Look how your eyes have changed,
all the love has gone
Where did I lose you babe,
what did I do wrong
How could you give yourself
to another man
I'm a fool for your love,
fool for your love.
Fool for your love.
Now you won't say goodbye,
But you don't want to stay
I never thought that I
Would lose you this way.
A fool for your love.
All through the lonesome night
I tossed and I turned
Lost in these dreams of you
since the day I learned
How could you give yourself
to another man
A fool for your love,
fool for your love.
Fool for your love.
A fool for your love,
I hold on your love.
I'm just a fool in love with you.
I'm a fool, fool for your love
I'm just a fool for your love
I'm a fool for you.
