Life begins at thirty

Or so I have been told

Oh I could easily believe it

The way I'm getting old

Yeah I'm getting old

You hang around back street bars

For what you wish you knew

You say give me something cheap

Something I will want to keep

Love's not everything

Not everything

I was just hoping you might stay

Hell it's hard to say

I was hoping you might stick around

Until the morning came

You've heard it all before, kid

But I'd say it all again

I'm gonna live a lush life

A pass for nothing much life

Love's not everything

Not everything

I was just hoping you might stay

Hell it's hard to say

I was hoping you might stick around

If you were doing nothing

Fool for love

Fool for love

Fool for love

I was just hoping you might stay

But it's not easy to say

When you're doing nothing

Fool for love

Fool for love

Yeah for love

And it's not only the lonely

Not only the lonely

And it's not only the lonely

Not only the lonely

And it's not only the lonely

Not only the lonely

Nah it's not only the lonely

Not only the lonely

Fool for love
