Lyrics
IT TAKES A FOOL A TIME OR TWO
VERSE:
Empty bed, wrinkled pillows, covers on the floor
The ashtray on the nightstand couldn?t hold any more
I?ve got some twice read magazines that I could read again
IT TAKES A FOOL A TIME OR TWO before the truth sinks in
VERSE:
The dinner plate she didn?t use, the empty coffee cup
That same old ashtray emptied twice somehow has filled back up
I?ll probably never find out who she?s with or where she?s been
IT TAKES A FOOL A TIME OR TWO before the truth sinks in
CHORUS:
Love dies hard and I don?t wanna let her go
But I?m holdin on to nothin while she?s holdin on to him
And it breaks my heart but I can?t get past the door
I can?t stand the thought of losin her again
VERSE:
So I?ll make the bed and wash the plates and wait for her again
I?ll paste forgiveness on my face, won?t ask her where she?s been
Believe the lies she?s memorized, forget the pain I?m in
IT TAKES A FOOL A TIME OR TWO before the truth sinks in
IT TAKES A FOOL A TIME OR TWO
