Lyrics
“Romance is a game for fools”, I used to say
A game I thought I’d never play
“Romance is a game for fools”, I said and grinned
Then you passed by and here am I
Throwing caution to the wind
Refrain:
Fools rush in where angels fear to tread
And so I come to you, my love
My heart above my head
Though I see the danger there
If there’s a chance for me then I don’t care
Fools rush in where wise men never go
but wise men never fall in love
So how are they to know?
When we met I felt my life begin
So open up your heart and let this fool rush in
