Year: 1938
Original publisher: Bregman, Vocco & Conn, Inc.

Male version:

Verse:

Please be discreet, my heart, she's much too charming;
The way you beat, my heart, is so alarming.
The dream is on again,
Poor thing, you're gone again.

Chorus:

Have it your way, foolish heart,
Fall in love again, my foolish heart;
My how you flutter whenever I'm kissed;
I know it is madness, but if you insist.
I'll surrender, foolish heart,
When you're blind with dreams, can I be smart?
If she's there tonight 'neath stars above,
Have it your way and fall in love.
