Mortals And Fools

[Verse 1:]
What I see in your eyes
Is a counterfeit emotion
Nearly true, pretty lies
Promise all you're dreaming of.

Like a frog in a well
Who is sure he's in the ocean
You believe in the spell
Of this thing that you call love.

[Chorus:]
Try as I will, I just don't understand it
Love is for mortals and fools
Never turns out quite the way that you planned it
So why do you break all the rules?

[Verse 2:]
What I feel is so real
That it sets my poor heart racing
Something you'll never know
Though you live a thousand years.

Half a life
Is the deal to discover who you're chasing
Half a life
Even so, worth it all if he appears.

[Chorus:]
Try as you might, you will not understand it
Love is for mortals and fools
Never turns out quite the way that you planned it
Love makes you break all the rules.

[Bridge:]
Love can make you come alive
Or take your life away
Love should make you leave
But makes you stay
For love can make you happy
In a house where love is made
Then it makes you wary and afraid.

[Chorus:]
Try as I might, never will understand it
Love is for mortals and fools
Never turns out quite the way that you planned it
Love is for making
Life is for taking
Love makes you break all the rules
Love makes you break all the rules.
