Miscellaneous
Love makes a fool of the wise
I was always running scared it's true
I was always running back to you
Running never takes you home
You're running wild and all alone
And lost you pay the cost
You held my heart right in your hand
You always seemed to understand
I played it right I played it wrong
I played around with love too long
and love's a game that anyone can lose
Love breaks the rules
A kind man turns cruel
What begins a dream will end a lie
Love makes a fool of the wise
Old friends don't seem to hang around
They whisper that she's leaving town
They say that I was cruel
They say I played the perfect fool
A fool who never learned the ways of love
Love makes a fool of the wise
