Peter tinturin / jack lawrence



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 is't so

I'm just foolin myself



And ev'ry 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 foolin myself
