Foolin' Myself Songtext
von Billie Holiday & Lester Young

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 isn′t so
I'm just foolin′ myself

And ev'ry time I pass
And see my face in a looking glass
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
