Frankie Lymon & The Teenagers - Why Do Fools Fall In Love?

Frankie Lymon - Why Do Fools Fall In Love?
LYRICS:
Oh wah, oh wah, oh wah, oh wah, oh wah, oh wah
Why do fools fall in love?
Why do birds sing so gay?
And lovers await the break of day
Why do they fall in love?
Why does the rain fall from above?
Why do fools fall in love?
Why do they fall in love?
Love is a losing game
Love can a be shame
I know of a fool
You see
For that fool is me
Tell me why, why, why
Tell me why
Why do birds sing so gay?
And lovers await the break of day?
Why do they fall in love?
Why does my heart skip a crazy beat?
Before I know it will reach defeat!
Tell me why, why, why
Why do fools fall in love?

After all of this time, we still haven’t found out why fools fall in love.

[MoorenaEl]

Frankie had the MOST POWERFUL voice as a child in the music industry to this

[bonbon]

I remember hearing Frankie Lymon for the first time when I was a kid. I will be 75 tomorrow and am remembering younger years💕

[beaverstandig]

I was a little girl when this song came out, still love it

[crashstitches]

One of the greatest and most iconic vocal performances in rocknroll history. The instrumentation is solid, but standard, and the lead vocals just carry this train all the way.

[juanatalktosampson]

0:50 He's giving me goosebumps with that golden voice ❤ What a talent! RIP Frankie Lymon

[DeshaunBouvier]

Born in 1992 & I’m hooked on the music from this era.

[kevanbrown]

I was brought up listening to Frankie Lymon, Sam Cooke, Jackie Wilson, Roy Orbison, Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly, Everly Brothers, Dion and others, as my late parents were teenagers in the '50s, so i have them to thank for my love of music.
What a voice Frankie Lymon had and what a great song which he co-wrote.

[lacindalefthandbull]

The first time I heard this song was watching the movie "Why do fools fall in love" So tragic how he passed away at a young age due to his addiction. I was 13 when I watched this movie in '99. I fell in love with his beautiful voice and the song! May his beautiful soul rest in paradise!

[ZIONHIGHER]

CLASSIC ! Look how many years these were made and STILL SOUNDS FRESH !

[jonfort]

God Bless you,
Little Frankie Lymons,
The song never gets old

[typical_wolfy]

Mafia II brought me here... As kid I thought that girl singing this track and riding around Empire Bay.
Memories...

[preciousayo]

This is Frankie's voice is amazingly good

[sidthetech]

Poor soul with so much talent, caught up in the trap of addiction.
I cherish the gems left behind.

[johnwick]

1:20 is the best of the song til the end

[mandlangobeni]

Wow...I can't stop listening to this song. What an amazing talent.

[klmaracle]

Thank you for posting! My Dad introduced me to this music and I love it. Beautiful song from a simpler time.

[DWGAT]

What a great era of music. Rip Frankie, you and your voice are missed

[SME]

A voice that could be successful in any generation ….

[scottparadise]

This guy makes me cry when I hear him sing. A Soul can't get any more real than that. T you
