Not Somebody's Fool Lyrics - Mindy Mccready

I wanna be honest, baby 

I've still got a love left in my heart 

But I'm fallin' apart 

I didn't know how to say it 

Or exactly where to start 

I don't wanna be your shadow 

Moving only where you move 

I wanna be somebody's baby 

Not somebody's fool 

You take my love for granted 

And sometimes act like you don't care 

And that isn't fair 

'Cause we started out together 

Dreamin' a dream for us to share 

I thought we were the exception 

But you're breaking all the rules 

I wanna be somebody's baby 

Not somebody's fool 

I always thought that love was all I needed 

But now I know I need some things to change 

I don't want to go as far as leaving 

So for God's sake, make it easier to stay 

I wanna be honest, baby 

I've still got a love left in my heart 

I'm just falling apart 

I didn't know how to say it 

But at least I've made a start 

The cards are laid out on the table 

Tell me what else can I do 

I wanna be somebody's baby 

Not somebody's fool
