ONLY FOOLS
(Heneker)

as recorded by David Hughes
1952


Only fools sacrifice their all
To the urgent call of love.
Only fools, it seems,
Put their trust in dreams,
Reaching for the stars above!

And only fools give their hearts away,
Knowing that they may not be returned,
And I am no exception to the rules,
For I'm a fool where you're concerned!

Only fools, it seems,
Put their trust in dreams,
Reaching for a star above, it's love!

But only fools give their hearts away,
Knowing that they may not be returned,
And I am no exception to the rule,
For I'm a fool where you're concerned!
