Why do birds sing so gay And lovers await a break of day Why do they fall in love Why does the rain fall from up above Why do fools fall in love Why do they fall in love Love is a losing game And love can be a shame I know of a fool, you see For that fool is me Tell me why Tell me why Why does my heart skip a crazy beat For I know it will reach defeat Tell me why Why do they fall in love Why do fools fall in love
