Singer/songwriter Michael Bolton had an extensive, though not very successful, career under his real name, Michael Bolotin, before emerging in the mid-'80s as a major soft rock balladeer. He turned up on RCA Records in the mid-'70s singing in a gruff, Joe Cocker-like voice both his own blue-eyed soul songs and cover tunes. Neither record buyers nor critics were much interested by the result. He then became the lead singer in Blackjack, a heavy metal band that made two albums for Polydor at the end of the '70s and the start of the '80s. In 1983, he changed his name to Michael Bolton, signed to Columbia Records as a solo act, and relaunched his career.

Fool for Love Lyrics
Michael Bolton
( duet with johnny hallyday-english version )
( johnnys part )
Im coming out with my angel,
Put down your guns and ill...confess.
I loved her more than life itself,
My angel in a pale blue dress.
But if you want to shoot, then shoot,
Id welcome an eternal sleep.
No man has ever felt a love,
So deep.
( michaels part )
I took her life, her tender life,
I couldnt bear to think that she,
Could laugh and love and give herself,
To any other man than me.
So if my world would end tonight,
I will not cry...i do not care.
Ill meet her in another life,
Somewhere.
Chorus:
( johnny and michael )
I was a fool, a fool for love,
A fool who believed, that she came from above.
Ill stay a fool, until I die,
She was my world, my breath, my sky.
Im just a fool, who lost all control,
Along with my soul.
In time the fool, becomes a clown,
And you all laugh, as I fall down.
( michaels part )
Ill never be at peace again,
Ill never feel her warm caress,
Ill leave each day just thinking of,
My angel in a pale blue dress.
( johnnys part )
And when her bodys in the ground,
Make sure you save a space for me,
For thats the only place, I long to be.
Chorus:
