(michael leeson / peter vale / jack hues / peter wolf)
The longer love survives The more it's easy to be blind When it is obvious it's over I put my trust in you I spent my love and I thought I knew But now things just don't look the same I paid the price with a love I thought was strong Counting on you I was wrong
Chorus: Just like a fool and his money Just like a fool, I let it slip away Just like a fool and his money All the love has gone
You think everything's all right But love can change that all over night And the hand you hold is colder And then your fortunes fade You really need the gold that you've thrown away And all you believed in has changed I paid the price for leaving love to chance alone Now I know this bird has flown
Repeat chorus
As the rain pours down in a starless night And my heart longs only for you A fool to cry
