What kind of fool
Am I
Who never
Fell in love
It seems that
I'm the only one
That I have been
Thinking of
What kind of man
Is this
An empty shell
A lonely cell
In which
An empty heart
Must dwell
What kind of clown
Am I
What do I know
Of life
Why can't I
Cast away
This mask of clay
And live my life
Why can't I fall
In love
Like any other man
And maybe then
I'll know
What kind of fool
I am
What kind of lips
Are these
That lie
With every kiss
That whispered
Empty words of love
That left me alone
Like this
What kind of eyes
Are these
That could not see
What could be seen
By everybody else
But me
What kind of clown
Am I
What do I know
Of life
Why can't I
Cast away
This mask of clay
And live my life
Why can't I fall
In love
Till I don't
Give a damn
And maybe then
I ll know
What kind of fool
I am
