The Arms Of A Fool

(Album: John Anderson - 1980)

So many times you've told me that you loved me
And just as many times I found out it's not true
So when you've had your fun, if you still need someone
Come on home to the arms of a fool

My foolish eyes still cry when my ears believe the lie
And my foolish heart keeps saying I love you
So if your new flame dies and you're still burning with desire
Come on home to the arms of a fool

Even if I'm standing in for someone
It's all right because I'm standing next to you
You'll find an open door and I'll take you back once more
So come on home to the arms of a fool

My foolish eyes still cry when my ears believe the lie
And my foolish heart keeps saying I love you
So if your new flame dies and you're still burning with desire
Come on home to the arms of a fool
Just come on home to the arms of a fool
