For Shame of Doing Wrong (1980) Richard & Linda Thompson

[Verse 1]

It seems like a lifetime since I saw you

Lover, lover I've been away too long

When I see lovers holding hands and sighing

I hang my head for shame of doing wrong

[Verse 2]

Bus wheels spinning, song birds singing break my heart

They take me back to old remembered days

Remind me of the times we spent together

Times before we went our separate ways

[Chorus]

I wish I was a fool for you again

I wish I was a fool for you again

[Verse 3]

I'm sorry for the things I've said, the things I've done

I'm sorry for the restless thief I've been

Please don't make me pay for my deceiving heart

Just turn up your lamp and let me in

[Chorus]

I wish I was a fool for you again (I wish I was a fool for you)

I wish I was a fool for you again (I wish I was a fool for you)

I wish I was a fool for you again (I wish I was a fool for you)

I wish I was a fool for you again (I wish I was a fool for you)

I wish I was a fool for you again (I wish I was a fool for you again)

I wish I was a fool for you again
