How Many Times A Fool

(K. Grimwood/E. Idlet)
Seems like only yesterday when you belonged to me
And now I hear you say you want to set me free
Well, how long have you known and kept it locked away?
How many times was I a fool
How many times a day?
And you swore that you loved me in front of all your friends
And now you want none of me, and this is how it ends
And every time we kissed I never turned away
How many times was I a fool
How many times a day?
And it hurts when I hear your name--
I know we'll never ever be the same
And though I try to keep it to myself
I just can't stand the thought of you with someone else
At first I felt defeated, you took me by surprise
My happiness retreated from that darkness in your eyes
I couldn't see you leaving, I needed you to stay
How many times was I a fool
How many times a day?
And it hurts when I hear your name--
I know we'll never ever be the same
And though I try to keep it to myself
I just can't stand the thought of you with someone else
Now it comes down to survival, and push has come to shove
I balance hurt with anger, but it's anger born of love
And every time we kissed I never turned away
How many times was I a fool
How many times a day?
Yeah, all the things I missed get clearer every day
How many times was I a fool
How many times a day?
How many times a fool?
How many times a fool?
