Biography

American jazz pianist. Born November 24, 1912, Austin, Texas, USA. Died July 31, 1986, New Britain, Connecticut, USA. Described by jazz critic [a=Scott Yanow] as "the definitive swing pianist." Wilson's sophisticated and elegant style was featured on the records of many of the biggest names in jazz including [a38201], [a300050], [a254768], [a33589], and [a31615]. With Goodman, he was perhaps the first well-known black musician to play publicly in a racially integrated group. In addition to his extensive work as a sideman, Wilson also led his own groups and recording sessions from the late 1920s until the 1980s. Brother of [a=Augustus Wilson]. Briefly married to songwriter [a=Irene Wilson] in the 1930s.

LYRICS

"Romance is a game for fools"
I used to say
A game I thought I'd never play
"Romance is a game for fools"
I said and grinned
Then you passed by
And here am I
Throwing caution to the wind

Fools rush in where angels fear to tread
And so I come to you, my love, my heart above my head.
Though I see the danger there
If there's a chance for me, then I don't care

Mm-mm-mm-mm
Fools rush in where wise men never go
But wise men never fall in love, so how are they to know?
When we met, I felt my life begin
So open up your heart and let this fool rush in

Fools rush in where wise men never, never, never go
Eh, but wise men never fall in love, so how are they to know?
Ah, when we met, girl, I felt my life begin
So open up your heart and let this fool rush in

Just open up your heart and let this fool rush on in
Just open up your heart because I-I-I-I-I-I-I am coming in
Open up your heart and let this fool rush in!!
