If you're lucky enough To have someone who loves you Then be glad That you have Someone who loves you For lips that are warm Can grow cool Listen to the wisdom of a fool When you take her poor heart And you do something to it Then you say to yourself Why did I do it You may find that the world can be cruel Listen to the wisdom of a fool Now I had a love just the same as you And I was a fool not to see But you still have time to say I love you I'm afraid it's too late for me Go back to the arms That you know will be waiting Hold her close and be glad Glad that she's waiting You'll be happy Believe me if you Only listen to the wisdom of a fool Only listen to the wisdom of a fool Written by: Abner Silver and Roy Alfred
