Falling in Love With Love

Words by Lorenz Hart and Music by Richard Rodgers

introduced by Muriel Angelus in the 1938 musical "The Boys From Syracuse"
A # 18 hit for Frances Langford in 1939

Falling in love with love is falling for make-believe
Falling in love with love is playing the fool
Caring too much is such a juvenile fancy
Learning to trust is just for children in school

I fell in love with love one night when the moon was full
I was unwise with eyes unable to see
I fell in love with love, with love everlasting
But love fell out with me

Oh, I fell in love with love one night when the moon was full
I was unwise with eyes unable to see
I fell in love with love, with love everlasting
But love fell out with me
