no i won’t be the first
it’s been a beautiful curse since the day that love was formed
can you see helen’s face
though an outrageous case it was love that first launched the war
and yet i’m dying to fight for a love that is right
oh a love that would make me a fool
in every sense of the word
though it may sound absurd
what a joy to be called that for you
i’d be a fool for love cause that is what lovers do
i would dance in the rain ‘til i was called insane to prove that my love is true
oh now i’ve spent my life in the pursuit of wise
and it’s not like i’m stopping that now
but i’m out of the box and i’m changing the locks
cause a fool’s love is wisdom somehow
and i’d serenade you in the night ‘til i count every star in the sky
and though others my stare well i don’t really care cause i’d be a fool for…
you are worth ridicule it is so miniscule to a love that is true
so set me on fire just to prove my desire to burn ever after for you
