Poor Damned Fool — текст песни (Harry Chapin)





You`re a livin` walkin` dream
You`re the best I`ve ever seen,
Oh God I wanted you.
I`ve often dreamed what I would do,
If I could give myself to you,
Oh God I wanted to.
But up `til now you`ve not been free to be
Foolin` around with the likes of me.
But it`s changed now, though it`s strange how,
He`s the one that arranged it now.

But he`s a poor damned fool
`Cause he went and let you go now.
Just a poor damned fool.
He never will know now.
Maybe someday he`ll be sad.
I say that that`s too bad,
He never knew how much he had.
I`m glad I got you now.

Yes I`ve had my ups and downs
As I`ve been ramblin` around
And I`ll be candid.
I could not believe my eyes
When I finally realized
Just what that man did.
Yes I`ve heard `bout finders keepers
And how losers are the weepers, it`s OK,
I know it`s my lucky day
Still I just got to say . . .

That he`s a poor damned fool
`Cause he went and let you go now.
Just a poor damned fool.
He never will know now.
Maybe someday he`ll be sad.
I say that that`s too bad,
He never knew how much he had.
I`m glad I got you now.

Oh how I`d love to hear you say
You`re glad that it worked out this way
And you`ll forget about yesterday
`Cause you feel so good.
It`s worked out real good.
You make me feel so good.

I`ve been tryin` to find a way to cope
With grasping straws And fallen hopes.
But he`s made a way
And now his misfortune is my gain.
Though for now it gives you pain
It`ll fade away
And you`ll find that as the years roll by
The memories of the time you cried
Will be laid away
Yes, they`ll fade away

And you`ll forget that poor damned fool
`Cause he went and let you go now.
Just a poor damned fool.
He never will know now.
Maybe someday he`ll be sad.
I say that that`s too bad
He never knew how much he had.
I`m glad I got you now.
He was a poor damn fool.
