Classic Poem

VERSE

Why do I allow my heart
To make decisions for me?
Why do I keep list'ning to my heart?
Why do I get so involved
When I would rather be free?
Maybe it's because I'm not so smart.

REFRAIN

Fools fall in love,
Only lunatics fall in love,
And I'm a fool.
Fools seek romance,
Only idiots take a chance,
And I'm a fool.
I should be able to put all my feelings aside,
I should be able to take one free ride in my stride,
But fools cannot play,
They get serious right away,
And break the rule.
My heart's on fire
When I know I ought to keep cool,
Fools fall in love
And I'm such a fool.
