The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
What kind of fool am I, who never fell in love?
It seems that I'm the only one that I have been thinking of
What kind of life is this, an empty shell?
A lonely cell in which an empty heart must dwell
What kind of lips are these, that lied with every kiss?
That whispered empty words of love that left me alone like this
Why can't I fall in love like other people can?
And maybe then I'll know what kind of fool I am
What kind of fool am I, who never fell in love?
Why can't I fall in love like other people can?
And maybe then I'll know what kind of fool I am
