Fooled Around and Fell in Love

I must have been through about a million girls
I'd love 'em and I'd leave 'em alone
I didn't care how much they cried, no sir
Their tears left me cold as a stone
But then I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
It used to be when I'd see a girl that I liked
I'd get out my book and write down her name
But when the grass got a little greener on the other side
I'd just tear out that page
But then I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
Since I met you baby
I fooled around and fell in love
I fooled around and fell in love
Free, on my own ... that's the way I used to be
But since I met you baby
Love's got a hold on me
It's got a hold on me now
I can't let go of you baby
I can't stop lovin' you now
'Cause I fooled around, fooled around, fooled around
Fooled around, fooled around, fooled around, fell in love
Fooled around, fooled around, yes I did
Fooled around, fooled around, fooled around
I fell in love, yes I did

One of the sexiest songs of my youth.
It evokes memories of back seats
and passionate kisses,
of driving home after the date
with her smell all over me,
the feel of her,
slowly unwrapping itself
from my skin like her perfume.
The anticipation of the next date.
Lots of fooling around;
lots of falling in love.
