Tom Russell - Love makes a fool of the wise lyrics

Tom Russell Miscellaneous Love makes a fool of the wise I was always running scared it's true I was always running back to you Running never takes you home You're running wild and all alone And lost you pay the cost You held my heart right in your hand You always seemed to understand I played it right I played it wrong I played around with love too long And love's a game that anyone can lose Chorus: Love breaks the rules A kind man turns cruel What begins a dream will end a lie Love makes a fool of the wise Old friends don't seem to hang around They whisper that she's leaving town They say that I was cruel They say I played the perfect fool A fool who never learned the ways of love Chorus *2 Love makes a fool of the wise
