You gave me all your heart could give
I gave nothing in return
Struck the spark that lit the flame
Then I watched it burn
Now you say with her is where you wanna be
Mmmmm
Took a woman to keep you
But to lose you took a fool like me
Loving you shoulda been an easy thing
Yet here I am alone
I took for granted I took everything
Never noticed you were gone
When you washed your hands, they sure came clean
Mmmmm
Took a woman to keep you
But to lose you took a fool like me
Whoever said a fool is blind
They won't ever see
But they ain't ever met the kind of fool like me
Now I see you on the street
All wrapped up on her arm
You don't even look my way
You're too caught up in her charm
Oh, remember when I swept you off your feet
Mmmmm
Took a woman to keep you
But to lose you took a fool like me
I guess it took a woman to keep you
But to lose you took a fool like me
