Down by the Sally Gardens My love and I did meet She passed the Sally Gardens With little snow-white feet She bid me take love easy As the leaves grow on the tree But I being young and foolish With her did not agree
Day after day Alone on a hill A man with a foolish grin Is keeping perfectly still [snip] The fool on the hill Sees the sun going down And the eyes in his head See the world spinning 'round.

I still look like a fool in front of your friends

Down by the Sally Gardens
My love and I did meet
She passed the Sally Gardens
With little snow-white feet
She bid me take love easy
As the leaves grow on the tree
But I being young and foolish
With her did not agree
-"The Sally Gardens" (yay!) W. B. Yeats
Everybody plays the fool
There's no exception to the rule
Well I wish I lived in a land of fools where no one knew my name
The Eagles
"How Long"
I'm just a fool
A fool in love with you
"Earth Angel"
Wise Men say
only fools rush in
but I can't help
falling in love with you
Only Fools Rush In ~ Elvis Presley
Day after day
Alone on a hill
A man with a foolish grin
Is keeping perfectly still

The fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning 'round.
(Lennon/McCartney)
Why do fools fall in love, why do they fall in lo-ove?
I'm a fool, a fool over you
It may take awhile but I'll prove it's true
Alan Jackson
But I'm in so deep. You know I'm such a fool for you.

Then I'll get on my knees and pray,
we don't get fooled again.

Love me, love me
Say that you love me
Fool me, fool me
Go on and fool me
-"Lovefool" by The Cardigans
I can't myself
I'm a fool in love you see
"Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch," the Four Tops
I fooled around and fell in love...I fooled around and fell in love...
A cigarette that bears a lipstick's traces
An airline ticket to romantic places
And still my heart has wings
These foolish things
Remind me of you
(Strachey/Link)
Close the churches and the schools
it's the day for breaking rules
come and join the feast of fools...
---"Topsy Turvy" from Hunchback of Notre Dame (Disney)
And I aint no fool for love songs that whisper in my ears
Still crazy after all these years
Paul Simon - still crazy after all these years
The night is like a lovely tune
Beware, my foolish heart
How white the ever constant moon
Take care, my foolish heart
(Washington/Young)
Must I always be waiting, waiting on you?
Must I always be playing, playing your fool?
