Seeking fortune's favour on your own
While the one who stays behind you,
Foolish me, is left alone
Sad and foolish that's how I feel
Don't you know how fortune favours few
Fortune's blind as blind as you my dear
What a pity, oh foolish you
Leaving me this way is hardly fair
Must I go seek a fortune too
Or must I wait till folly finds it's own way home
To me and foolish you
Sad and foolish...
Loving you was good love was kind
I didn't mind the payment's overdue
For the price of loving is none too dear
As long as I'm with foolish you
Sad and foolish...
