I thought you were a diamond, turns out you're a rock
Had me fooled so bad, now I'm the town's laughing stock
You had me buying roses, even sang those love songs
Now I'm singing solo, and honey, I'm long gone

I was once a fool, but now you ain't foolin' me
Had me dancing like a clown, now I'm finally free
You played me for a minute, but now it's clear to see
I was once a fool, but now you ain't foolin' me

I remember those sweet lies, how you'd bat your eyes
You were serving up the charm, had me eating up your lines
Now I'm thinking back and laughing, how could I be so blind?
Got a PhD in heartbreak, and I'm leaving you behind

I was once a fool, but now you ain't foolin' me
Had me dancing like a clown, now I'm finally free
You played me for a minute, but now it's clear to see
I was once a fool, but now you ain't foolin' me

Your love was like a fire, burning bright and fast
But just like every fire, it turned to ash
So keep your sweet talk coming, but I ain't buying what you sell
You were the best mistake I made, and now I'm ringing the bell

You thought I'd come running back, every time you called
But now I've found my footing, no more stumbles, no more falls
Turned those tears into laughter, and this fool got wise
Now I'm raising up my glass, saying cheers to goodbyes

I was once a fool, but now you ain't foolin' me
Had me dancing like a clown, now I'm finally free
You played me for a minute, but now it's clear to see
I was once a fool, but now you ain't foolin' me
