Lyrics
The night is like a lovely tune
The night is compared to a beautiful melody.
Beware my foolish heart
A cautionary note, advising against being naïve or overly sentimental in matters of the heart.
How wise the ever constant moon
Appreciating the wisdom symbolized by the ever-present and unchanging moon.
Take care my foolish heart
A repetition of the warning to be cautious and protect oneself emotionally.
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
Expressing the challenge of recognizing the boundary between love and fascination, especially in the current romantic setting.
For they both give the very same sensation
Both love and fascination can create similar intense emotions.
When you're lost in the magic of a kiss
Describing the enchantment and allure of a kiss, making it challenging to differentiate between love and mere fascination.
Her lips are much too close to mine
Pointing out the physical proximity of the speaker's and another person's lips.
Beware my foolish heart
A repetition of the warning against being foolish in matters of the heart.
But should her eager lips meet mine
Considering the possibility of the speaker succumbing to the temptation of a kiss.
Then let the fire start
If the kiss happens, acknowledging the potential ignition of passion or a romantic relationship.
For this time it isn't fascination
Rejecting the idea that the emotions involved are mere fascination or a fleeting dream.
Nor a dream that will fade and fall apart
Contrasting the current situation with something more profound and lasting—love that won't disintegrate.
It's love, this time it's love
Affirming that what is felt this time is genuine love.
My foolish heart, whoa
A reflective pause, expressing the sentiment of the speaker's heart being considered foolish.
For this time it isn't fascination
Reiterating that the emotions involved are not fleeting fascination or a dream but true, enduring love.
Nor a dream that will fade and fall apart
Emphasizing the contrast again, stating that it's not a transient dream but a lasting, true love.
Truly, it's love, this time it's love
A heartfelt declaration that the emotions involved are indeed love, reinforcing the sincerity of the feelings.
My foolish heart
Repeating the acknowledgment of the heart's perceived foolishness in the context of love.
