Don't be a fool
Don't give your nights to someone else
While giving days to those who really love you
Don't be a fool like me
And give your life to someone else
While faking love to those who really love you
Why couldn't I have realized
The gravity of telling lies
Whose weight now shows
Upon your faceless smile
I know your heart now and before
But I won't do it anymore
Trust in me and fall in love again
Listen to these charms
Cos', baby, I'm not fooling
And fall into these open arms of love
Listen to these charms
Cos', baby, I'm not fooling
And fall into these open arms of love
Listen to these charms
Cos', baby, I'm not fooling around
And fall into these open arms of love
Why couldn't I have realized
The gravity of tears in eyes
Whose weight now shows
Upon your faceless smile
I broke your heart now and before
But I won't do it anymore
Trust in me and fall in love again
Why couldn't I have realized
The gravity of telling lies
Who's weight now shoes
Upon your faceless smile
I know your heart now and before
But I won't do it anymore
Trust in me and fall in love again
Listen to these charms
Cos', baby, I'm not fooling
And fall into these open arms of love
Listen to these charms
Cos', baby, I'm not fooling
And fall into these open arms of love
Listen to these charms
Cos', baby, I'm not fooling around
And fall into these open arms of love
And fall into these open arms of love
And fall into these open arms of love
