You say that I’m a foolish one
that my judgement’s often cloudy
unlike the partner you’d imagined 

and I can’t say you’re wrong

but I’ll tell you, falling is frightening
and you make me dizzy
especially when you’re close

just like when we first met 

though I don’t think I’m reckless
for a poet once said
words I now know are true

you can never be wise

and be in love

at the same time.
