This Foolish Heart Could Love You

This foolish heart could love you This foolish heart could also easily fall For in the instant that our eyes should ever happen t'intertwine Or should your hand fall ever sweetly Into the precipice of mine Take care with all the words you tell me Take care with what your eyes may seem to say You know poetry and prose are far too easy to compose And then I'll start believing there's the slightest chance For some romance For this foolish heart Wondrous is what the moment brings Wonderful, the song the songbird sings But even though it's wonderful The evening there, yeah, I should know There is about to be an end to everything I see For no sheer amount of moonlight No sheer amount of stars that shine above Could sweetly cast a light upon your face Or ever offer an embrace This story ends as only friends With such a foolish heart
