Roy Orbison Lyrics

I was a fool, I only wanted you

I don't lose my blues
When I pretend you're with me
Though I make believe
I'm still alone
When I think of you
My empty arms remind me
That my one true love has gone

I was a fool, that's why I cried over you
I was a fool, I only wanted you

When I smile so gay, everybody knows
That I've lost my love
But that's the way it goes
When I think of you
My empty arms remind me
That my one true love has gone

I was a fool, that's why I cried over you
I was a fool, I only wanted you
