I remember when
I was five and you were ten, boy
You knew that I was shy
So you teased and made me cry

Then one day you came
You told me you were leaving
You gave your folks the blame
And made me cry again
When you said

Little girl
Please don't wait for me
Wait patiently for love
Someday it will surely come

Ooh, little girl
Please don't wait for me
Wait patiently for love
Someday it will surely come
And I'm still waiting

I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool to keep waiting
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool to keep waiting
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool

Someone finally came
He told me that he loved me
I put him off with lies
He could see I had no eyes
He left me once again alone

Like a child without her playmate
I had to face the truth
I was still in love with you
When you said

Little girl
Please don't wait for me
Wait patiently for love
Someday it will surely come
Ooh, little girl
Please don't wait for me
Wait patiently for love
Someday it will surely come
And I'm still waiting

I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool to keep waiting
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool to keep waiting
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool to keep waiting
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool to keep waiting
I'm just a fool
I'm just a fool

(I'm just a fool)
(I'm just a fool to keep waiting)
(I'm just a fool)
(I'm just a fool)
(I'm just a fool)
(I'm just a fool to keep waiting)
(I'm just a fool)
