fools fall in love in a hurry

fools give their hearts much too soon

just play them two bars of stardust

just hang out one silly moon

they've got their love torches burning

when they should be playing it cool

i used to laugh but now i understand

shake the hand of a brand new fool

fools fall in love

just like schoolgirls

blinded by rose colored dreams

they build their castles on wishes

with only rainbows for beams

they're making plans for the future

when they should be right back in school

i used to laugh but now i understand

shake the hand of a brand new fool

oh they're making plans

for the future

when they should be right back in school

i used to laugh but now i understand

shake the hand of a brand new fool
