FOOLISH HEART

1st Verse
Here I am with another heart ache
Once again I'm singing the blues.
I promised myself I'd stay away from losers,
Two timing users, but I broke my own rules.
And now I blame it on you...
CHORUS
Foolish heart of mine why did you love him so
Why did you lose control and rush right into his arms
Foolish heart of mine I thought you were my friend
But you chased down love's dead end,
I trusted you in vain...
A Foolish heart once again.
2nd Verse
There I was wasting all my loving
Heart in hand and head over heels.
Running on emotion and giving him devotion,
I had the silly notion, that his love was for real
I just can't trust what I feel...
CHORUS
Foolish heart of mine why did you love him so
Why did you lose control and rush right into his arms
Foolish heart of mine I thought you were my friend
But you chased down love's dead end,
I trusted you in vain...
A Foolish heart once again.
Bridge
Each time I leave a man it hurts me
My love just goes to waste
But there's one saving grace...
It takes a foolish heart like mine
To keep on hoping, keep on coping
It gets back up even though it's broken...
CHORUS
Foolish heart of mine you don't give up on love
When I'm not strong enough, you keep me carrying on.
Foolish heart of mine you might be my last chance
I'll find that special man
And that's how my story will end
A foolish heart once again
I'll find that special man
A Foolish heart once again
