Falling in love with love is falling for make - believe;
A7sus A7 A7sus A7 DM7 D6 DM7 D6
Falling in love with love is playing the fool.

Caring too much is such a juvenile fancy;
Fdim Bm Em E7 Em7 G/B A7sus A7
Learning to trust is just for children in school.
D DM7 D6 D A7sus A7 Em7 A7
I fell in love with love one night when the moon was full,
A7sus A7 A7sus A7 DM7 D6 DM7 D6
I was unwise with eyes unable to see.
DM7 D7 DM7 D6 F#7
I fell in love with love, with love ev-er-last-ing,
B7 Em Cdim Em7 A7 D DM7 Em7 A7
But love fell out with me.
D DM7 D6 D A7sus A7 Em7 A7
Oh, I fell in love with love one night when the moon was full,
A7sus A7 A7sus A7 DM7 D6 DM7 D6
I was unwise with eyes unable to see.
DM7 D7 DM7 D6 F#7
I fell in love with love, with love ev-er-last-ing,
B7 Em Cdim Em7 A7 D DM7 D6 D9 Em7 A7 D6
But love fell out with me.
------------------------------
I weave with brightly colored strings
To keep my mind off other things
So, ladies, let your fingers dance
And keep your hands out of romance
Lovely witches
Let the stitches
Keep your fingers under control
Cut the thread, but leave
The whole heart whole
Merry maids can sew and sleep
Wives can only sew and weep
------------------
Falling in love with love Is falling for make-believe
Falling in love with love Is playing the fool
Caring too much is juvenile fancy
Learning to trust is just For children in school
I fell in love with love one night When the moon was full
I was unwise with eyes Unable to see
I fell in love with love With love everlasting
But love fell out with me
