Lyrics

(Ferry/mackay)

Surely you cannot be leading me on?
Well if that's so, however can I love again?
How could I believe again?
How can I hold on?
Sentimental fool
Knowing that fate is cruel
You ought to forget it
Yes, I know it's true
I've seen what love can do
But I don't regret it
Oh, you silly thing--
Don't you see what's happening?
You're better without it
No, that's not the case--
If you were in my place
You never would doubt it
Sentimental fool
Who broke the golden rule
You couldn't resist it
Though it's all in vain
I'd do it all again
Just to relive a minute
A woman in love
Can make you feel good--
You know what you're living for
She'll give you so much
And keep you in touch
With all that's worth living for
Oh once she gets in
Through thick and through thin
She'll show you what living's for
The rhythm of love
It must go on
Can't stop
The beat of your heart
Is like a drum
Will it stop?
