After Ive had my last cigarette
When the night is as black
As the nights gonna get
Well Im still wide awake
Cause I still cant forget
I was a fool to let you go
And after Ive closed
The bar with the boys
Though I cant stand the drinks
And I cant stand the noise
When I know Ill be back
Cause theres no other choice
I know I was a fool to let you go
I was a fool to think that I could sleep a wink
In this big and deep bed by myself
And I was a fool to wait until it was too late
To tell you just how I felt
And after Ive been
With somebody new
And she knows what to say
Ah, but not what to do
Then I know what Ive lost
And I know its so true
No, I was a fool to let you go
And after Ive been
With somebody new
And she knows what to say
Ah, but not what to do
Then I know what Ive lost
And I know its so true
When Ive seen what it cost
And what Im going through
I know I was a fool
I was a fool to let you go
