Laugh and song, yours for the taking And castles of gold, yours for the making But stay out of love, that's where the blue began. Fortune and fame, always around you Just stick to the game until they have found you. But stay out of love, that's where the blues began. I said go out loud live and love, That's what the wise man said. But you can't love, When you're in love and your love is away. C'mon and travel the road that leads to the mountain, But don't stop to drink at destiny's fountain. Just stay out of love, that's where the blues began.
