The Fool’s Love

\nFor you I’d steal the sky and run away
\nFor you I’d take the blame for life itself
\nFor you I’d work for years without the pay
\nAnd yet for you I’m sitting on the shelf<\/p>\n
For you I’d fold a perfect hand at cards
\nFor you I’d give my all without a thought
\nFor you I’d smile to see my world in shards
\nAnd yet you use my heart for simple sport<\/p>\n
Without you I am lost and cannot see
\nWithout you I must live and try to smile
\nWithout you I can see no poetry
\nBut I can be with you a little while<\/p>\n
A fool who loves a vision never learns
\nA lover cannot keep the spoils he earns<\/p>\n
