Fool Number One

by Kathryn R. Fulton


Am I fool number one?

 

Or am I fool number two?

 

How many other girls have been

fooled by you?

 

I suppose that the number

is far from being small,

 

And I’ll bet that I’m

the biggest fool of all.

 

If I had the chance,

I’d do it all again

 

I’d go down that same old road

knowing


In the end

 

You’d leave me

when your heart

 

Hears a new love call.

 

So I guess that I’m

the biggest fool of all.

 

Am I fool number one?

 

Or am I

fool number two?

 

How many other girls

have been fooled by you?

 

I’d say that the number

is far


from being small.

 

And I’ll say that I am

 

The biggest fool of all.

 

Am I fool number one?

 

Or am I

fool number two?

 

How many other girls

have been fooled by you?

 

I’d say that the number

is so far

 

from being small

 

That I know that I’m

 

The biggest fool of all.
