Fooled, maybe I'm just being fooled
Maybe I'll be ridiculed, but I adore you
If I'm fooled, then it's heaven being fooled
For you taught a heart unschooled, to live just for you!

Those who act cautious and wise,
never have stars in their eyes
If I'm in a fool's paradise,
keep me there for I don't care
If I'm fooled, and my mind is overruled
Still my heart has not been fooled,
'cause I'll always love you!

'cause I'll always love you!
