Fool of the Rules

I hear love, it can move mountains

But why you'd want to I don't know

There ain't enough in this here fountain

There's something blocking that water's flow

Heard of love deep as the ocean

A salty soggy sea that seems

Kind of rough, always in motion

It ain't the stuff you'd want in your dreams

I don't wanna move a mountain I wanna stay right here

Wanna walk these roads with you my dear

I don't wanna swim across a giant ocean of tears

So fool of the rules I am

I hear love will walk for hours

We'll climb a tower, we'll take a fall

Just my luck, I need a shower

Be feeling sour after that all

I don't wanna run so far I wanna stay right here

Wanna stroll along with you my dear

I don't wanna have to face all of my deepest fears

Oh fool of the rules I am

Some say love is like a flower

That's only abloom when the day is new

So I pray stay close to my heart like a flower

Between the pages of I book I gave to you

It's written love is kind and patient

But I hate waiting up for you

Sure gets tough, staying gracious

I get complacent like you do too

I don't wanna run so far I wanna stay right here

Wanna forge ahead with you my dear

I don't know if it has ever been quite so clear

Oh fool of the rules I am
