Lyrics Fooling Myself - Alan Merrill

Treading so carefully
I was watching my step
Every inch of the way
Making my mind up
What to do with that woman
Can't let her slip away
Lonely days, and lonely nights
All by myself, surely this ain't right
Gotta find me a better plan
Before she gets herself another man

I was fooling myself
Fooling myself
I was fooling myself
And now another day's gone by
I still ain't got you, baby
Another day's gone by I still ain't got you

Taking no chance
Ain't gonna lose in this race
She knows there's something I got
I can see it by the look on her face
I make her smile she makes me laugh a lot
Closing in, I'm moving fast
Chasing that woman, now she's free at last
Can't give it up and I don't wanna try
I feel so good that I could touch the sky

I was fooling myself
Fooling myself
I was fooling myself
And now another day's gone by
I still ain't got you, baby
Another day's gone by I still ain't got you

One more day's gone by
Driving you away from me
One more day's gone by
Telling me you want to be free

I was fooling myself (fooling myself)
Fooling myself (fooling myself
I was fooling myself (fooling myself babe)
And now another day's gone by
I still ain't got you, baby
Another day's gone by I still ain't got you
