Fools rush in where angels fear to tread

And so I come to you, my love, my heart above my head.

Though I see the danger there

If there's a chance for me, then I don't care



Mm-mm-mm-mm

Fools rush in where wise men never go

But wise men never fall in love, so how are they to know?

When we met, I felt my life begin

So open up your heart and let this fool rush in



Fools rush in where wise men never, never, never go

Eh, but wise men never fall in love, so how are they to know?

Ahh, when we met, girl, I felt my life begin

So open up your heart and let this fool rush in



Just open up your heart and let this fool rush on in

Just open up your heart because I-I-I-I-I-I-I am coming in

Open up your heart and let this fool rush in!!
