Loving you is a misery, everybody tells me so
cause you're too young and I'm too old
but how are they to know how I love you
how can I, stop loving you
I can tell that I feel this way
so don't be cruel, say that I'm not wrong
that I'll have your love some day little darling

I'm a fool to be loving you this way
then there must be a lot of fools in our world today
cause love is what everyone is dreaming of
so if there weren't any fools, there wouldn't be no love

Please forgive me, forgive me for loving you
but you know it's just the way I feel
and baby though I know you're out of reach
this old love is a love I can't conceal

Little darling if I'm a fool to be loving you this way
then there must be a lot of fools in our world today
cause love is what everyone is dreaming of
so if there weren't any fools, there wouldn't be no love

I know that I, I don't have a chance
to even feel the warm embrace that you can give

So if I'm a fool to be loving you this way
then there must be a lot of fools in our world today
cause love is what everyone is dreaming of
so if there weren't any fools, there wouldn't be no love
