Follies of Love

By Rocky Steen-Rolfzen & Jeff Rolfzen


My days are brighter

When I’m with you the follies of love are true

My dreams are sweeter

When I’m you I’m hopelessly in love

After dark I’d walk around the city

Out along the downtown avenues

Over the passageways trying to find the bridge that would lead me to you

Now I’m filled with ecstasy

When I’m with you I’m only a fool in love


You’ve got me swaying like the waves

Swaying swaying in the bay

Just like a pelican in the sky

You’ve got me thinking that I could fly

Oh how I feel this way

Believe me when I say

You’ve made a foolish dreamer out of me

My friends they told me

When I’m with you the follies of love are true

My smile is beaming

When I’m with you I’m hopelessly in love

I used to sit alone by my window

Watching the passersby

Wondering if love was out there

And if your romance would met mine

Now my heart is gleaming

When I’m with you I’m only a fooling love

You’ve got me moving slow and sweet

Like a stroll out on the beach

Like a fish out in the sea

You make me feel so wild and free

Oh how I feel this way

Believe me when I say

You’ve made a foolish dreamer out of me

Say what you want to say

When I’m with you the follies of love are true

So I know that you can’t stay

When I’m with you I’m hopelessly in love

When two forlorn hearts get together

Fun a magic seem to fill the air

Then just as brisk as the sunrise

You learn it was all a disguise

I’ll take my chances

No second guesses

No second glances

When I’m with you I’m only

(when I’m with you I’m only)

When I’m with you I’m only a fool in love
