The Richest Fool Alive (Recorded by Patty Loveless)

Verse 1

There's just no way of going back, to change what's come and gone

But if I could go back in time, I'd undo what you've done

I wouldn't look into your eyes, and go completely blind

Or listen to your pretty words, and leave my heart behind

*Chorus

If heartache were treasure, and pain could be sold

If dreams were made of silver, and promises of gold

If tear drops were diamonds, measured in lies

I'd have a broken heart worth millions, and be the richest fool alive.

(Repeat last line in instrumental)

Verse 2

Next time I listen to my friends, take their advice to heart

And avoid all of this misery, I could of ended from the start

But fools in love don't listen, they don't know right from wrong

They see just what they wanna see, and miss it when it's gone

*Chorus

If heartaches were treasure, and pain could be sold,

If dreams were made of silver, and promises of gold

Tear drops were diamonds, measured in lies

I'd have a broken heart worth millions, and be the richest fool alive

(Repeat last line and repeat again in instrumental).
