Sentimental Fool

Roxy Music

Surely you cannot be leading me on?

Well if that's so, however can I love again?

How could I believe again?

How can I hold on?

Sentimental fool

Knowing that fate is cruel,

You ought to forget it.

Yes, I know it's true,

I've seen what love can do,

But I don't regret it.

Oh, you silly thing

Don't you see what's happening?

You're better without it.

No, that's not the case

If you were in my place,

You never would doubt it.

Sentimental fool

Who broke the golden rule,

You couldn't resist it.

Though it's all in vain,

I'd do it all again

Just to relive a minute.

A woman in love

Can make you feel good

You know what you're living for.

She'll give you so much

And keep you in touch

With all that's worth living for.

Oh once she gets in

Through thick and through thin

She'll show you what living's for.

The rhythm of love

It must go on

Can't stop.

The beat of your heart

Is like a drum

Will it stop?
