James Taylor - I Was a Fool to Care Lyrics

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 Baby, 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.
