Lyrics for For Shame Of Doing Wrong

It seems like a lifetime since I saw you Lover lover I've been away too long When I see lovers holding hands and sighing I hang my head for shame of doing wrong Bus wheels spinning, song birds singing break my heart Take me back to old remembered days Remind me of the times we spent together Times before we went our separate ways I wish I was a fool for you again I wish I was a fool for you again I wish I was a fool for you again I'm sorry for the things I've said, the things I've done I'm sorry for the restless thief I've been Please don't make me pay for my deceiving heart Just turn up your lamp and let me in I wish I was a fool for you again I wish I was a fool for you again I wish I was a fool for you again I wish I was a fool for you again I wish I was a fool for you again I wish I was a fool for you again I wish I was a fool for you again I wish I was a fool for you again I wish I was a fool for you again I wish I was a fool for you again I wish I was a fool for you again
