[Verse 1]
Carve your name, carve your name in ice and wind, look to where, look to where the river ends or where the river starts

[Chorus]
Everything that's in you, you think to be your part
Never give your love, my friend, unto a foolish heart
Unto a foolish heart

[Verse 2]
Learn to leap, leap from ledges high and wild, learn to speak, speak with wisdom like a child directly to the heart

[Chorus]
Crown yourself the king of clowns or stand way back apart
And never give your lovе, my friend, unto a foolish heart
Unto a foolish heart

[Verse 3]
Shun a friеnd, shun a brother and a friend, never look, never look around the bend or check the weather chart

[Chorus]
Sign the Mona Lisa with a spray can, call it art
But never give your love, my friend, unto a foolish heart
Unto a foolish heart

[Bridge]
A foolish heart will call on you to toss your dreams away
Turn around and blame you for the way you went astray
A foolish heart will cost you sleep and most make you curse
A selfish heart is trouble, but a foolish heart is worse
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
Bite the hand, bite the hand that bakes your bread, get to where where the angels fear to tread 'til you are torn apart

[Chorus]
Stoke the fires of paradise with coals from hell to start
Never give your love, my friend, unto a foolish heart
Unto a foolish heart

[Outro]
Unto a foolish heart
Unto a foolish heart
Unto a foolish heart
Unto a foolish heart
Unto a foolish heart
