"After years of experience we find out what kind of heart we have."

(Note: I eventually re-recorded this song in 2011 with Lost Colt, with a new bridge added).

Lyrics

Foolish Heart © Bruce Wozny 1992

I've got a foolish heart / as you might say
Sometimes I fall in love / instead of running away
On the edge of a great unknown / ready to jump in
I want to thank you for standing by / to pull me out again

(I've got a foolish) heart / Anybody will tell you so
and I still fall in love / When I ought to stay low...
oh, my old flame / we’ve been living so long apart
I still reach out for you / with my foolish heart

It's a big wide lonesome world / now I'm on my own
And it's so easy to get lost / when you're far from home
There are others who've turned my head / since we've been apart
But you're the only one I trust / with my foolish heart

(I've got a foolish) heart / Anybody will tell you so
and I still fall in love / When I ought to stay low...
oh, my old flame / we’ve been living so long apart
I still reach out for you / with my foolish heart
