My Foolish Heart

Living life dangerously with my heart on my sleeve So reckless, So careless. Others can't conceive Have you no walls? Where is your protection? You're bound to get hurt by self-infliction They look upon me. Baffled and shocked "You foolish girl" they shout. They've mocked Pain is all you'll find taking a risk such as this You'll be left heartbroken over short lived bliss I've heard it all before. Been told a time or two They've even been right. I'll admit that to you Here's what I know. What I learned from it all Love is a risk. Even guarded you can fall Nothing last forever. Everything will change Hearts come together, fall apart, rearrange Rather by choice, by time, or by death Even when it last to someone's final breath But there's no growth without pain As there's no flowers without rain Say what you will, I told you from the start On my sleeve it will stay, my foolish heart
