My Foolish Heart

Impulsively, spontaneously I fell for you  
a man who knew nothing of my soul and realm   
you took my foolish heart and filled it with your greed 
then took it all away just like a pirate thief

A man who knew nothing of my soul and realm 
gliding in you stole buried treasure from my box 
then took it all away just like a pirate thief
despite the fact I was shut tighter than Fort Knox 

gliding in you stole buried treasure from my box 
promising me trinkets while ravaging my girth 
despite the fact I was shut tighter than Fort Knox 
I gave you a son and all that I once deemed worth  

promising me trinkets while ravaging my girth 
placating me with with every drunken ruse 
I gave you a son and all that I once deemed worth  
exploiting us like cheap cigars and wassailed booze 

placating me with every drunken ruse 
you took my foolish heart and filled it with your greed 
exploiting us like cheap cigars and wassailed booze 
impulsively, spontaneously I fell for you.
