If you're lucky enough
To have someone who loves you
Then be glad that you've got
Someone who loves you
Cause the lips that were warm
Can grow cool
Listen to the wisdom of a fool
When you take his poor heart
And you do something to it
And you think to yourself
Why did I do it
You may find that the world
Can be cruel
Listen to the wisdom of a fool
Now I had a love just the same as you
And I was a fool not to see
But you
You still have time to say you love him
I'm afraid
It's too late for me
So go back to the arms
That you know will be waiting
Hold him close in your arms
And be glad that he's waiting
You'll be happy believe me if you'll
Only listen to the wisdom of a fool
Only listen to the wisdom of a fool
