Fall in love fall in love
Says my heart
It's romance take a chance
Says my heart

But each time that I'm almost in your arms
This old schoolteacher brain of mine
Keeps bringing in false alarms

Then my head rules instead and I'm wise
To the scheme of that gleam in your eyes
So I kiss and run
But the moment we're apart
Oh! you fool that was love
Says my heart

(bridge)

Then my head rules instead and I'm wise
To the scheme of that gleam in your eyes
So I kiss and run
But the moment we're apart
Oh! you fool that was love
Says my heart

It wasn't the moon it wasn't the stars
That was love!
Says my heart

But each time that I'm almost in your arms
This old schoolteacher brain of mine
Keeps bringing in false alarms

It wasn't the moon it wasn't the stars
That was love!
Says my heart
