For Shame Of Doing Wrong Lyrics - Sandy Denny

It seems like a lifetime since I saw you 

Lover lover I've been away too long 

When I see lovers holdings hands and sighing 

I hang my head for shame of doing wrong 

Bus wheels spinning, song birds singing break my heart 

Take me back to old remembered days 

Remind me of the times we spent together 

Times before we went our separate ways 

I wish I was a fool for you 

I wish I was a fool for you 

I wish I was a fool for you again 

I'm sorry for the things I've said, the things I've done 

I'm sorry for the restless thief I've been 

Please don't make me pay for my deceiving heart 

Just turn up your lamp and let me in 

I wish I was a fool for you 

I wish I was a fool for you 

I wish I was a fool for you again 

[Richard Thompson]
