Remember the summer we sat in the rain
Counting the cars on the Southern bound trains
And just for a moment
Our gazes would meet
Lips just an instant from kisses so sweet
So what ever happened
You turned away
And I never thought of the right thing to say
So many times i have thought of the kiss
We never shared
Now you?re telling me this
You could have fooled me
I had no idea
That you were so very in love with me, dear
You did not show it
And now it seems cruel
You could have fooled me
I?m that much a fool
You were a brother, a friend, and a man
Who i thought I knew like the back of my hand
Now you?re here waiting
Your eyes wet with tears
Confessing a love after so many years
Well you could have fooled me
I had no idea
You were so very in love with me, dear
You did not show it
And now it seems cruel
You could have fooled me
I?m that much a fool
(solo-- accordion, guitar, etc.)
Well i waited
And wondered
What seems like a lifetime and then
i loved you like a brother
And cherished you so as a friend
Remember the winter you went away
Something inside of me died on that day
And now i am married
I play by the rules
I cannot go with you
I'm that much a fool
But you could have fooled me
I had no idea
That you were so very in love with me, dear
You did not show it
And now it seems cruel
You could have fooled me
I?m that much a fool
