These smiling lingers
Of joy brought here our love
A crazy kind of love
Makes my heart let me near you
Sometimes you treat me true
Sometimes you treat me cruel
I guess that's why I'll always be a 14 karat fool

I'm your little puppet
You hold out on a string
Centered off the tears
I know you're on a fling
I get so sentimental
While you've broken every rule
I guess that's why I'll always be a 14 karat fool

I wish I didn't love you so
Oh baby, then it wouldn't hurt so much inside
How many times I gotta' let you go
It's just my foolish pride, oh baby

If you would settle down, all the happiness you'd bring

A whole new come around
When I mention wedding ring
Things are sentimental
You love for me is true
I guess that's why I'll always be a 14 karat fool
Well, let's rock

Well, I wish I didn't love you so
Oh baby, then it wouldn't hurt so much inside
How many times I gotta' let you go
It's just my foolish pride, oh baby

If you would settle down, all the happiness you'd bring
A whole new come around
When I mention wedding ring
Things are sentimental
You love for me is true
I guess that's why I'll always be a 14 karat fool
