Why do birds sing so [bad word] 
And lovers await the break of day?
Why do they fall in love?
Why does the rain fall from up above?
Why do fools fall in love?
Why do they fall in love?

Love is a losing game. 
Love can be a shame.
I know of a fool, you see, 
For that fool is me
Tell me why

Why do birds sing so [bad word] 
And lovers await the break of day?
Why do they fall in love?
Why does the rain fall from up above?
Why do fools fall in love?
Why do they fall in love?

Why does my heart skip a crazy beat?
For I know it will reach defeat
Tell me why
Why do fools fall in love?
