(Now and then there's a fool such as I) 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
