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 pa** And see my face in a looking gla** 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
