[English]

Didn't we just know it all

At 18, the world seems like one big party

I toss it up and let it fall

Like nothing that came down could ever harm me

We both did some growing up

And a couple of times, the joke was on us

Still I wouldn't take it back

Cause, baby, we get the last laugh

We were young and foolish

Still we managed to get one thing right

I'm wiser now, it's true

But I'm still a fool for you

And if I didn't know ya

I'd fall for you all over a thousand times

There's nothing I could do

Cause I'm still a fool for you

We had ourselves some crazy times

Back when each moment could make or break us

We put it all on the line

Back when we knew where this road would take us

Then you wake up and realize

It ain't all Sunday mornings, it's some rough nights

Still, I'd never take it back

Cause, baby, we get the last laugh

We were young and foolish

Still we managed to get one thing right

I'm wiser now, it's true

But I'm still a fool for you

And if I didn't know ya

I'd fall for you all over a thousand times

There's nothing I could do

Cause I'm still a fool for you

I'm still a, I'm still a fool

I'm still a, I'm still a fool

I'm still a, I'm still a fool

I'm still a fool for you

Winter in the city, out among the lake

Learning the hard way from all of our mistakes

We didn't have a clue, but looking back

We get the last laugh

...

I'm wiser now, it's true

But I'm still a fool...

And if I didn't know ya

I'd fall for you all over a thousand times

There's nothing I could do

Cause I'm still a fool for you

I'm still a, I'm still a fool

I'm still a, I'm still a fool

I'm still a, I'm still a fool

I'm still a fool for you

I'm still a, I'm still a fool

I'm still a, I'm still a fool

I'm still a, I'm still a fool

...
