My Foolish Heart

My foolish heart fell hard in love 
And was shattered to smithereens
I wish I had control thereof 
Now I'm crying behind the scenes 

My foolish heart faltered in love 
And was wounded with hopeless dreams 
For he was not sent from above 
Now I'm sighing with silent screams 

My foolish heart, when will you learn 
That life's not a sweet fairytale 
Now I am left alone to burn 
Tarnished memories that assail
