"FOOL ME ONCE" lyrics

"FOOL ME ONCE"
(feat. Leon Thomas)

[GIVĒON:]
Once was convinced that you were a perfect burning flame
Used to believe in us, for you I would travel through any terrain
There wasn't a storm that I wouldn't bear, to the sound of you calling my name (No)
Always been foolish in love, but wise enough to never complain
Baby, the dimples on your face, baby, the birthmark on your skin
Maybe the way you outthink me, my friends say you think like a man
Even when the writings on the walls, oh, I don't give a damn
Baby, you ain't ever fooled me
If you win, that is 'cause I let you win
I let you win

I said, fool me once, then shame on me
Fool me twice, baby, I'll allow it
Baby, I love you and there's no other way around it, oh, oh
I said, fool me once, then shame on me
Fool me twice, baby, just think about it
Maybe I like you, and there's no other way around it, oh, oh

[Leon Thomas {GIVĒON}:]
I know the real thing gon' have a needle, gotta work a little (Yeah)
I admit that I feel things more than them other niggas, so meet me in the middle
I know that this ain't the old days my granddaddy came up in
Those days are gone
Don't take this the wrong way, but you been renegade
But baby, I run the game, oh
And you are enticing {Enticing}
Think you would lead, I would like it {Like it}
Can read your mind, I'm a psychic
But baby, ain't no world in my eyes {World}
I read between the lines, between the lines {Oh}, oh, baby

[GIVĒON:]
I said, fool me once, then shame on me
Fool me twice, baby, I'll allow it
Baby, I love you and there's no other way around it, oh, oh
I said, fool me once, then shame on me
Fool me twice, baby, just think about it
Maybe I like you, and there's no other way around it, oh, oh

[Leon Thomas:]
Who's really the fool?
Fooling the people who only wanted the best for you (Oh)
Who's really the fool?
Fooling the people who only wanted the best for you (Oh)

[GIVĒON:]
Fool me once, uh
My hands are dry, even when I'm screamin' at you
Holding on, uh
I draw the line [?] I ease your mind
Your body divine, oh, oh
I said, fool me once, then shame on me
But maybe I like you
