Foreigner - Fool For You Anyway Lyrics






Well I miss you honey
A little more every day
And I know if I kissed you
You'd be comin' back home to stay

'Cause I know I was wrong
But how long do I have to pay?

You know you belong here beside me
I'm a fool for you anyway
I'm a fool for you anyway
'Cause I'm a fool for you anyway

Well I cried for you so long
My river of tears ran dry
And I tried to be so strong
But grew weaker as time went by

You know your love left a mark on me
I don't think it will fade away

I'll sit here and wait 'til you come home
I'm a fool for you anyway
I'm a fool for you anyway
Fool for you anyway

Wooo...

You know your love left a mark on me, haohhh
I don't think it will fade away

I'll sit here and wait 'til you come home
'Cause I'm a fool for you anyway
'Cause I'm a fool for you anyway
I'm a fool for you anyway

Oohhh, fool for you anyway
Oohhh, 'cause I'm a fool for you anyway
Oh yeah, I'm a fool for you anyway
Oh I'm a fool I'm a fool
I'm a fool for you anyway
Ha now now now now now
I'm a fool
Oohh I'm a fool
I'm a fool for you anyway way
Oh yeah, I'm a fool for you anyway

  65. W.... M....

    Dedicated to the man I've always loved......always will.....

  66. J.... S....

    This is one of the Greatest Debut albums of any band from those glory days. Back in those days this was like a song about a Woman we weren’t with anymore because we’d fupped duck being guys like we are. All these years later, other than the “kissed you” line in the lyrics I think of my precious but lost daughter. She’s with some physically and psychologically abusive guy and not a part of our lives anymore. No normal Thanksgivings or Christmas holidays. No weekend family lunches/dinners... My Wife and I sorely miss Her. Thanks Foreigner and Rock Zone.

  67. A.... O....

    just a big fuck yeah for this songgg 😫🙌

  68. E.... J....

    After 41 years "I'm A Fool For Her Anyway"

  70. J.... S....

    Great song I love this band..Writing songs so relatable to the human condition.

  71. D.... W....

    I dedicate this song to every Law Enforcement Officer I've ever known. It's my favorite song and I cry too.

  72. r.... s....

    i could not even get a job in the nut house ?They told me ? "We got enough of you in here already?"""?

  73. B.... E....

    HOLY CRAP I just heard Kelly Hansen doing this live and unplugged its GREAT>>go look.

  74. C.... A....

    Killer memories. Life was easy and carefree.... Full moon nights, the drive in, High School back yard keg Parties, Concerts scheduled on the calender, Mall runs, coolest new clothes, hitch hiking, crushes, etc.... Best time to be a teen. This entire album kicked ass. Miss these times

    C.... A....

    Crabby Appleton The mall hitchhiking, Gratiot drive inn. N
