People tell me, boy you're crazy Some people say that I'm nuts For trying to get back together with you baby They say that once is enough I should never have left you cause now I need you Sometimes it happens that way I come back like a fool who's believing No matter what they might say I don't want to hear another word Don't need your well thought out advice Though I thank you all for being kind I can make mistakes myself just fine I've got a good friend who knows my trouble he thinks I'm wasting my time He said go out and have some fun she's not the only one But I can't leave her behind So, I don't want to hear another word Don't need your well thought out advice Though I thank you all for being kind I can make mistakes myself just fine
