Foolish Heart

Carve your name
Carve your name in ice and wind
Search for where
Search for where the rivers end
Or where the rivers start

Do everything that's in you
That you feel to be your part
But never give your love, my friend
Unto a foolish heart

Learn to leap leap from ledges high and wild
Learn to speak
Speak with wisdom like a child
Directly to the heart

Crown yourself the king of clowns
Or stand way back apart
And never give your love, my friend
Unto a foolish heart unto a foolish heart

Shun a friend shun a brother and a friend
Look to where look to where the rivers bend
Or check the weather chart

Sign the Mona Lisa
With a spray can, call it art
Never give your love, my friend
Unto a foolish heart unto a foolish heart

Foolish heart will call on you
To throw your dreams away
Turn around and blame you
For the way things went astray
Foolish heart will cost you sleep
And ought to make you curse
A selfish heart is trouble
But a foolish heart is worse

Bite the hand
Bite the hand that bakes your bread
Get to where get to where the angels tread
Or you get torn apart

Light the coal of paradise
With coals from hell to start
Never give your love, my friend
Unto a foolish heart unto a foolish heart
