Lyrics
Sentimental Foolish Heart
Nan Michaels
This old life never was that good or worth a dime
This life seemed to pass me by before my time
And still i have this Sentimental Foolish Heart
Every day all I do is work the same routine
I can't believe all the things I've done and seen
And still I have this Sentimental Foolish Heart
How I wish I never knew how love could hypnotize me
And how love could ease the pain
But when that love just came to an end
I began to lose all my friends
And I know life will never change and I'll go on
The dreams i once had are gone to wish upon
And still I have this Sentimental Foolish Heart
