Don't Want to Be a Fool Lyrics

Love, what have you done
oh wow
I was sure up til now that she was a friend
i stayed til the end
(Don't be a fool again)
i once believed that love was fair
but I don't anymore
she said i'm a bore
my heart hit the floor
(don't be a fool again)

Each time around I tell myself
it's the game of love
ignore the signs and risk it all
in the name of love
well i've decided i can't let nobody hurt me again
so I'll say it til the end
i just don't want to be a fool
(don't want to be a fool)
said i don't want to be a fool ever again

whenerver a fool's in love
he doesn't know he's to blame
he's caught in the game
it all ends up the same
h(he doesn't feel the shame)
he looks at love in a different way
it breaks his heart everytime
they all turn estranged
but he'll never change
(he's never going to change)

next time around i'll tell myself
it'll be better than before
i won't look back
there'll be no one tearing my heart out anymore
i've just decided i can't let nobody fool me again
so i'll swear til the end
i just don't want to be a fool
(don't want to be a fool)
said I don't want to be a fool
ever again

(no way)
i mean no more
never again
ooh no never
can't be
noway
noway, noway
ooh, I don't want to be
I don't want to be a fool no

(i can't love anybody walking on a one way street
anyway, anyway, anyway
if i don't find somebody
that'll be alright with me
i know, i know, it'll be alright now
'cause i decided not to let nobody hurt me again
so i'll say it til the end
i just don't want to be a fool
said i don't want to be a fool
never, neber again
(don't want to be a fool)
can't be a fool
(don't want to be a fool)
never again

Luther Ronzoni Vandross (April 20, 1951 - July 1, 2005), New York City, NY, was an American Soul and RnB singer whose career spanned four decades.

In the 70s, he worked as a backing singer Chic and for David Bowie (on the Young Americans album). He later found success as a solo artist with Superstar and A House is not a Home.

In the 80s, Vandross was a vocalist on early Change singles (Searching), whilst continuing his solo career with such releases as "Never too Much", "Power Of Love/Love Power", "If only for One Night", "Here and Now".

In the 90s, he was more famous for duets with Janet Jackson and Mariah Carey (amongst others), than for his solo work.

It was an ongoing battle with his weight that may have ultimately proved his undoing. He suffered a stroke in 2003, from which he never really recovered, and died in 2005.

During his career, he sold 25 million albums and won eight Grammy awards including Best Male R&B Vocal Performance four times. He won four Grammy awards in 2004, including the Grammy Award for Song of the Year for the track "Dance With My Father," co-written with Richard Marx.
