Foolin' Myself

Jack Lawrence / Peter Tinturin

I tell myself I'm through with love
And I'll have nothing more to do with love
I'd stay away, but every day
I'm just foolin' myself

I tell my friends that I don't care
I shrug my shoulders at the whole affair
But they all know it isn't so
I'm just foolin myself

And every time I pass
And see myself in the looking glass
I tip my hat and say
How do you do, you fool?
You're throwing 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
