Your mem'ry always brings out the fool in me
I can't deny I love you more than life
But so many times before I should have said goodbye

Still I know I'll never be completely free
There's something holding on to you it's the fool in me
I've tried to keep my feelings for you locked up tight
But the thoughts I have of you just won't be denied
And no one knows that you remain my destiny
Until I grow too weak and they see the fool in me
Yes the fool in me keeps hanging on to you
Even after all this hurtin' that you can't be through
And I can't escape the past I know I can't be free
Cause your mem'ry always brings out the fool in me
Yes your mem'ry always brings out the fool in me
