Foolish you, you wanna go away
Seeking fortune’s favour on your own
While the one who stays beside you
Foolish me, is left alone
Sad and foolish, that’s how I feel
Don’t you know how fortune favours few?
Fortune’s blind, as blind as you, my dear
What a pity, ah, foolish you
Leaving me this way is hardly fair
Must I go seek a fortune too
Or must I wait till folly finds its own way home
To me and foolish you?
Sad and foolish, that’s how I feel
Don’t you know how fortune favours few?
Fortune’s blind, as blind as you, my dear
What a pity, ah, foolish you
Loving you was good, love was kind
I didn’t mind the payment’s overdue
For the price of loving is none too dear
As long as I’m with foolish you
Sad and foolish, that’s how I feel
Don’t you know how fortune favours few?
Fortune’s blind, as blind as you, my dear
What a pity, ah, foolish you
Sad and foolish, that’s how I feel
When I see the foolish way you do
Fortune fails, when you are gone, my dear
And I still want more of foolish you
I still want more of foolish you
