My Foolish Heart
Beware My Foolish Heart
Lyrics
The night is like a lovely tune
The night is compared to a beautiful melody.
Beware my foolish heart
A warning about being cautious with one's emotions.
How white the ever constant moon
Describing the brightness of the ever-present moon.
Take care my foolish heart
Reiterating the cautionary advice for the 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
Emphasizing the challenge of discerning between the two emotions on a particular evening.
For they both give the very same sensation
Noting that love and fascination can evoke similar sensations.
When you're lost in the magic of a kiss
Expressing the enchantment and magic experienced during a kiss.
His lips are much too close to mine
Describing physical proximity, suggesting potential romantic involvement.
Beware my foolish heart
Repeating the warning to be wary of the heart's impulses.
But should our eager lips combine
Introducing the possibility of lips meeting despite the caution.
Then let the fire start
If the lips do meet, acknowledging the potential for passion and desire to ignite.
For this time it isn't fascination
Contrasting the current experience with mere fascination or fleeting dreams.
Or a dream that will fade and fall apart
Asserting that the emotions involved are genuine and won't fade away.
It's love, this time it's love
Confirming that what is felt this time is true love.
My foolish heart
Repeating the cautionary expression about the heart's impulsiveness.
It's love, this time is love
Reaffirming that the current experience is indeed genuine love.
My foolish heart
Repeating the warning and acknowledging the vulnerability of the heart.
