Lyrics

Ooh wah, ooh-wah, ooh-ooh wah, ooh wah
Ooh-ooh wah, ooh-wah
Why do fools fall in love?
Why do birds sing so gay?
Lovers await the 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
Love can be a shame
I know of a fool, you see
For that fool is me
Tell me, why?
Tell me, why? Tell me, why?
Why do birds sing so gay?
Lovers await the 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?
Why does my heart skip a crazy beat?
Before I know it will reach defeat
Tell me, why?
Tell me, why? Tell me, why?
Why do fools fall in love?
Written by: Frank Joseph Lymon, George Goldner, Morris Levy, Santiago Herman
