Oh, This Foolish Heart

Oh, this foolish heart of mine
why do you keep on yearning
For the one that isn't mine
and keeping this flame burning.
You know this love can never be
so why not set it free
Instead of hanging onto it...
so free from it I'll be.

Everytime my mind's made up
to try hard to forget
This heart of mine starts longing
and again I am beset..
With thoughts of what could be
and all the 'how's' and 'why's'
Yet, knowing that it's all in vain
and then I start to cry.

Oh, this foolish heart of mine..
oh please, please set me free
From the love I have for one
that cannot ever be.
My heart has held on to this love
for such a very long time,
I guess my heart keeps hoping...
someday that love will be mine.
