Lyrics
DON´T TRY TO FOOL ME
Listen to just what I´ve got to say.
Everything is coming my way.
Think I´m gonna be O.K.
It´s true I know by now.
So I´ll sing it all again for you,
no longer need for you to feel blue.
Think of all the things we´ve been through.
I love you.
So don´t try to fool me.
I know it makes you feel good inside.
No, don´t try to fool me.
Come to me, show me the smile that you hide,
Come to me, kiss me, hold me tight.
Won´t you share this little song with me?
Try to sing it, it makes you feel free.
Will you spen this little moment alone with me?
So don´t try.........
Won´t you share this little song with me?
Try to sing it, it makes you feel free.
Will you spend this little moment alone with me?
Will you spend this little moment alone with me?
Don´t try to fool me , my love
You know that I love only you.
Yes, I love you, I love you, it´s true
I really couln´t live without you.
So don´t try to fool me.
I know it makes you feel good inside.
No, don´t try to fool me.
I know it makes you feel good inside.
So don´t try......
