[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

[Instrumental Outro]
