Hank Snow - (Now And Then There's) A Fool Such As I Lyrics

Pardon me, if I'm sentimental

When we say goodbye

Don't be angry with me should I cry

When you're gone, yet I'll dream

A little dream as years go by

Now and then there's a fool such as I

Now and then there's a fool such as I am over you

You taught me how to love

And now you say that we are through

I'm a fool, but I'll love you dear

Until the day I die

Now and then there's a fool such as I

Now and then there's a fool such as I am over you

You taught me how to love

And now you say that we are through

I'm a fool, but I'll love you dear

Until the day I die

Now and then there's a fool such as I

Now and then there's a fool such as I

Now and then there's a fool such as I
