Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Carve your name
Carve your name in ice and wind
Search for where
Search for where the rivers end
Or where the rivers start
[Verse 2]
Do everything that's in you
You feel to be your part
But never give your love, my friend
Unto a foolish heart
[Verse 3]
Unto a foolish heart
[Verse 4]
Dare to leap
Leap from ledges high and wild
Learn to speak
Speak with wisdom like a child
Directly to the heart
[Verse 5]
Crown yourself the king of clowns
Or stand way back apart
But never give your love, my friend
Unto a foolish heart
[Verse 6]
Unto a foolish heart
[Verse 7]
Shun a friend
Shun a brother and a friend
Never look
Never look around the bend
Or check a weather chart
[Verse 8]
Sign the Mona Lisa
With a spray can, call it art
But never give your love, my friend
Unto a foolish heart
[Verse 9]
Unto a foolish heart
[Verse 10]
A foolish heart will call on you
To toss your dreams away
Then turn around and blame you
For the way you went astray
[Verse 11]
A foolish heart will cost you sleep
And often make you curse
A selfish heart is trouble
But a foolish heart is worse
[Verse 12]
Bite the hand
Bite the hand that bakes your bread
Dare to leap
Where the angels fear to tread
Till you are torn apart
[Verse 13]
Stoke the fires of paradise
With coals from Hell to start
But never give your love, my friend
Unto a foolish heart
[Verse 14]
Unto a foolish heart
[Verse 15]
Unto a foolish heart
[Verse 16]
Unto a foolish heart
[Verse 17]
Unto a foolish heart
[Verse 18]
Unto a foolish heart
Written by: Jerry Garcia, Robert Hunter
