Fool for Love

Baby, let’s hit the town for a while

Let me bask in your sweet smile while we’re dancing

Show me that crazy step that is yours

The way you move across the floor in the moonlight

But baby don’t get carried away

Laugh at what I say – take it lightly

 

Cause I’m a fool for love

I just can’t get enough

It’s deep in my blood

My love

 

Sweetheart, I love it when your cheek brushes mine

The way you smile in recline as you hold me

You’re a sweetheart, maybe an angel in disguise

At least, through these hopeful eyes you look perfect

But sweetheart, don’t let me in to your life

Don’t let me know what you’re like lest I love you

 

Cause I’m a fool for love

It’s deep in my blood

I just can’t get enough

Of love

 

The sentiment of the street — nimble in retreat

Keep cool, be discreet —  wreaks havoc with me

I love a grand old time

Stir the shaken lines

Set off fireworks

Ring wild chimes

Flaunt the mystery

 

Cause I’m a fool for love

It’s a hit I have to have

A case I’m yet to prove

My love

 

Baby, let’s hit the town for a while

Let’s dance away the night in a frenzy

Show me that special move that is yours

Come on, give me the grand tour, the sneak preview

But baby don’t get carried away

Lie a little on the way – say you love me

 

Cause I’m a fool for love

I just can’t get enough

It’s deep in my blood

My love

Yeah I’m a fool for love

It’s a hit I have to have

A case I’m yet to prove

My love

Fool for love

I’m a fool for your love

A fool for falling in love

My love

Yeah I’m a fool for love

A fool for falling in love

Its’ written in my blood

My love
