Fools Rush In
Love's Brave Gamble: Fools Rush In
Lyrics
"Romance is a game for fools"
Romance is seen as a pursuit only for those lacking wisdom or understanding.
I used to say
The speaker used to hold this belief.
A game I thought I'd never play
They never intended to partake in romantic endeavors.
"Romance is a game for fools"
Reiteration of the view that love is a foolish pursuit.
I said and grinned
The speaker said this with amusement or a smirk.
Then you passed by
Upon encountering someone (likely the love interest), things changed.
And here am I
The speaker finds themselves in a romantic situation due to this encounter.
Throwing caution to the wind
They are disregarding caution or hesitancy.
Fools rush in where angels fear to tread
Implying that foolish individuals rush into situations that are perilous or avoided by the wise.
And so I come to you, my love, my heart above my head.
The speaker approaches the beloved with emotions prevailing over rationality.
Though I see the danger there
They acknowledge the potential risks involved.
If there's a chance for me, then I don't care
Despite the danger, the speaker is willing to take a chance.
Mm-mm-mm-mm
Non-verbal expression or humming, perhaps indicating emotion or hesitation.
Fools rush in where wise men never go
Reiteration of the idea that foolish people enter where wise ones don’t.
But wise men never fall in love, so how are they to know?
Wise individuals, not prone to love, lack the understanding of it.
When we met, I felt my life begin
The speaker felt a significant change or beginning in life upon meeting the beloved.
So open up your heart and let this fool rush in
They urge the beloved to open their heart despite the speaker's perceived foolishness.
Fools rush in where wise men never, never, never go
Repetition of the concept that wise men avoid certain romantic paths.
Eh, but wise men never fall in love, so how are they to know?
Reiteration that those not inclined towards love lack understanding of it.
Ah, when we met, girl, I felt my life begin
Similar sentiment expressed upon meeting the beloved.
So open up your heart and let this fool rush in
A plea for the beloved to embrace the speaker despite their perceived foolishness.
Just open up your heart and let this fool rush on in
Continued plea for the beloved to accept the speaker.
Just open up your heart because I-I-I-I-I-I-I am coming in
Emphasizing the speaker's imminent arrival into the beloved's heart.
Open up your heart and let this fool rush in!
A final plea for acceptance despite the speaker's perceived foolishness.
