foolin' myself
I try to keep  you out of my heart But somehow I find Trying to keep you out of my heart I'm out of my mind I tell myself "I'm through with you And I'll having nothing more to do with you" I stay away, but every day I'm just foolin myself  Tell my friends that I don't care I shrug my shoulders at the whole affair But all know it isn't so I'm just foolin myself  And every time I pass And see my face in a looking glass I tip my hat and say "How do you do, you fool You're trowing your life away" I'm acting gay I'm acting proud And every time I see you in a crowd I may pretend But in the end I'm just fooling myself
