I can't tell my heart that you don't love me I can't say the love we had was blind

It's true you left dear for another but I can't tell my heart that you're that kind

Each night I hug my pillow I make believe it's you

But it can't take the place of a lovely girl like you

I can't tell my heart that you don't love me

So I'll just fool my heart the way that you fooled me

[ guitar - fiddle ]

I was blinded by your charm and glamor I thought I'd found the love so true and real

Now I will pay the price in tears and sorrow

And there's no words to tell you how I feel

You just laughed and told me to find another love

But instead of this I pray I'll win your love

So I can't tell my heart that you don't love me

I'll just fool my heart the way that you fooled me
