Lyrics

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
