Foolish Heart
Nina Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I need a love that grows
I don't want it unless I know
But with each passin' hour, someone, somehow
Will be there, ready to share

I need a love that's strong
I'm so tired of being alone
But will my lonely heart play the part
Of the fool again, before I begin?

Foolish heart, hear me calling
Stop before you start falling
Foolish heart, heed my warning
You've been wrong before, don't be wrong anymore

I'm feelin' that feelin' again
And I'm back in the game I can't seem to win
Love's knockin' on the door of my heart once more
Think I'll let him in before I begin

I need a love that grows
I'm so tired of being alone
But will my lonely heart play the part
Of the fool again, before I begin?

Foolish heart, hear me calling
Stop before, you start falling
Foolish heart, heed my warning
You've been wrong

Foolish heart
Stop before you start falling
Foolish heart
You've been wrong before

Foolish heart, hear me calling
Stop before you start falling
Foolish heart, heed my warning
You've been wrong before

Foolish heart





Don't be wrong anymore, mmm
Foolish heart
