Well here I stand* Before you a broken man With head in hands And what a fool I am To think you'd ever wanna Have your eyes meet with mine Again After what I did And wonderin' where I'd been All this time 'Cause I guess it was the spotlight That drove me away Or dreamin' that old billboard Would be flashin' my name Now here I stand before you Just a fraction of the man I used to be Prayin' you'll forgive the fool in me The fool in me You ain't never seen A thing like Miami Beach Or Alberta gold Oh it was good to be home But all the time that tI've been takin' For the things that I thought I'm supposed to do Well all that I could do Was think of you And everything you meant to me 'Cause I guess it was the spotlight That drove me away Or dreamin' that old billboard Would be shinin' my name Now here I stand before you Just a fraction of the man I used to be Prayin you'll forgive the fool in me Well I need to know Is time to let go? I need to hold Onto something real 'Cause I guess it was the spotlight That drove me away Or dreamin' that old billboard Would be flashin' my name Now here I stand before you Just a fraction of the man I used to be Prayin' you'll forgive the fool in me (Fool, fool in me) Cause all I'm ever gonna be is a fool (Fool, fool in me) Just the fool in me (Fool, fool in me) The fool in me
