Faron Young – Weakness Of A Fool lyrics

Composer(s) – Samuel Manning

Well I'll admit that from the start there was this certain doubt
That I could ever hold your love for long
The tempting thought then came to me why not try her out
You never know you just might be her song

I let you lead me to believe I was your only thrill
That I was one exception to the rule
Then with cunning ways and evil mind you moved in for the kill
And played upon the weakness of this fool

My better judgment tells me I better pack and leave
But then my heart makes another rule
I walk away then run right back knowin' that I'll grieve
But that's just the weakness in a fool

I've lost a count of all the times I've walked away from you
To have my heart just drag me back again
But that's the way a fool in love will always follow through
Knowin' that he has no chance to win

I wish that I could find the strength to free you from my mind
And let my better judgment be the rule
Oh I'd walk away and not return and leave you far behind
If it wasn't for the weakness in this fool
If it wasn't for the weakness in this fool
