You're a livin' walkin' dream

You're the best I've ever seen

Oh god I wanted you

I've often dreamed what I would do

I could give myself to you

Oh god I wanted to

But up 'til now you've not been free to be

Foolin' around with the likes of me

But it's changed now though it's strange how

He's the one that arranged it now

But he's a poor damned fool

'Cause he went and let you go now

Just a poor damned fool

He never will know now

Maybe someday he'll be sad

I say that that's too bad

He never knew how much he had

I'm glad I got you now

Yes I've had my ups and downs

As I've been ramblin' around

And I'll be candid

I could not believe my eyes

When I finally realized

Just what that man did

Yes I've heard 'bout finders keepers

And how losers are the weepers it's ok

I know it's my lucky day

Still I just got to say

That he's a poor damned fool

'Cause he went and let you go now

Just a poor damned fool

He never will know now

Maybe someday he'll be sad

I get say that that's too bad

He never knew how much he had

I'm glad I got you now

Oh how I'd love to hear you say

You're glad that it worked out this way

And you'll forget about yesterday

'Cause you feel so good

It's worked out real good

You make me feel so good

I've been tryin' to find a way to cope

With grasping straws and fallen hopes

But he's made a way

And now his misfortune is my gain

Though for now it gives you pain

It'll fade away

And you'll find that as the years roll by

The memories of the time you cried

Will be laid away

Yes they'll fade away

Fade away

And you'll forget that poor damned fool

'Cause he went and let you go now

Just a poor damned fool

But he never will know now

Now maybe someday he'll be sad

I get say that that's too bad

He never knew how much he had

I'm glad I got you now

He was a poor damn fool
