Cool Fool

Oh, such a big thing to overcome
 My compulsion to be the only one
 Though you say you love me
 They're only words to me
 Just a confrontation
 With my passion to disbelieve
 I ain't cool enough to love you
 I ain't fool enough to lose you
 But I ain't cool enough to fool you
 So just say you love this cool fool
 Oh, it seems like such a waste of time
 To think of schemes that undermine
 Stop. I tell myself
 Stop for someone else who might never see
 Through the clouds of suspicion
 That keep me missin' what is best for me
 I ain't cool enough to love you
 I ain't fool enough to lose you
 But I ain't cool enough to fool you
 So just say you love this cool fool
 Oh, give this heart an even break
 Now that I've learned from my mistakes
 Boy on the run
 Starin' at the gun that can blow his cool
 Head 'em off at the pass
 This chance might be his last
 To learn love's rules
 I ain't cool enough to love you
 I ain't fool enough to lose you
 But I ain't cool enough to fool you
 So just say you love this cool fool
