My Foolish Heart
Captivated by Love: My Foolish Heart's Allure
Lyrics
The night is like a lovely tune
The night is compared to a beautiful melody.
Beware my foolish heart
A cautionary warning to be mindful of one's own foolish heart.
How wise the ever constant moon
The moon is described as ever constant, suggesting wisdom.
Take care my foolish heart
A repetition of the warning to take care of the foolish heart.
There's a line between love and fascination
Highlighting the difficulty in distinguishing between love and fascination.
That's hard to see on an evening such as this
Suggesting that the distinction is challenging, especially in the evening.
For they both give the very same sensation
Love and fascination are said to evoke similar sensations.
When you're lost in the magic of a kiss
Describing the magical feeling experienced during a kiss.
Her lips are much too close to mine
The proximity of her lips requires caution for the foolish heart.
Beware my foolish heart
A repetition of the warning about the foolish heart.
But should her eager lips meet mine
If their lips meet, it suggests potential for passionate feelings.
Then let the fire start
Expressing the idea that a romantic fire could ignite.
For this time it isn't fascination
Clarifying that the experience is not mere fascination or a fleeting dream.
Nor a dream that will fade and fall apart
Contrasting the current experience with something more enduring.
It's love, this time it's love
A definitive statement that it is love this time, not just fascination.
My foolish heart, whoa
An expression of the speaker's own foolish heart.
For this time it isn't fascination
Reiterating that the current emotion is not fleeting or superficial.
Nor a dream that will fade and fall apart
Emphasizing that it's not a dream that will fade away.
Truly, it's love, this time it's love
A reaffirmation that this time it is genuine love.
My foolish heart
A closing acknowledgment of the speaker's own foolish heart in the context of love.
