Lyrics

A Fool for Love

In days gone by

There was a king

A fool for love

And all it brings

So high and wise

Could read your mind

A fool for love

And love is blind

A crowded street

An empty train

A fool for love

You cry in vain

A fool for love

A fool for love

A fool for love

In days gone by

There was a queen

A fool for love

And all it means

Red ruby lips

Don't touch me eyes

A fool for love

And love is blind

A fool for love

A fool for love

A fool for love

Like flowers in the rain

I'm twisted up inside

I'll never be the same

I hear the same old lines

You played me for a fool

You really hurt my pride

A fool for love

A fool for love

A fool for love

In days gone by

There was a king

A fool for love

And all it brings

So high and wise

Could read your mind

A fool for love

And love is blind
