[Verse 1]
The first time that I saw you we're in Chinatown
You smiled at me and my head fell down
The next time that I saw you was at home on TV
I reached for the dial, just as you reached for me
[Chorus]
Fool that I am
I waited for you, hopin' you knew
Fool that I am
[Verse 2]
A close friend of mine said you were lookin' for me
I kept a watch on the phone, but unfortunately
When your call came, I was badly misplaced
And by the time I got back, you couldn't be traced
[Chorus]
Fool that I am
I waited for you, hopin' you knew
Fool that I am
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Fool that I am
I waited for you, hopin' you knew
Fool that I am
I waited for you, hopin' you knеw
Fool that I am
Fool that I am
