You could've taken me and all the love I had

You could've shaken me and never once looked back

You could've made my world just crumble and fall

Instead you stood by me through it all and I'm so glad

You could've fooled me but you didn't

You could've stole my heart and just walked away

You could've fooled me but you wouldn't

That's just not the kind of game you play

You told me you'd love me a long time ago

And you're still here to show me it's so

And we both know you could've fooled me



What did I ever do to deserve someone like you

If I ever lost your love I'd have nothing left to lose

You could've lied to me I was young and naive

I loved you so much I would have never believed you'd be untrue

You could've fooled me...



The thunder has roared the lightning has cracked

You could have sworn that you'd love me forever

And suddendly just disappear in a flash

You could've fooled me but you didn't

You could've stole my heart and just walked away

You could've fooled me fooled me but you couldn't

That's just not the kind of game you play

You could've fooled me you could've fooled me
