In days gone by

There was a king

A fool for love

And all it brings



So high and wise

Could read your mind

A fool for love

And love is blind



A crowded street

An empty train

A fool for love

You cry in vain



In days gone by

There was a queen

A fool for love

And all it means



Red ruby lips

Don't touch my eyes

A fool for love

And love is blind



Like flowers in the rain

I'm twisted up inside

I'll never be the same



I hear the same old lines

You played me for a fool

You really hurt my pride.
