Fools gold

Fools gold

Way back when I found you.
The World changed for me on that day.
It has never been the same.

I was down and you lifted me up.
Dusted me off and cleaned me up.
Called me yours and I got to call you mine.

You thought you found the gold.
I knew it was fools gold.
You should have left in the heap.

I got you and now you are in too deep.
Can’t turn and walk away today.
Tomorrow is another day baby.

I hope I can be your gold then.
And not leave you feeling I came up short.
Your fool, fools gold.

I was down and you lifted me up.
Dusted me off and cleaned me up.
Called me yours and I got to call you mine.

You cleaned me up good.
I went from dusty and dirty.
I shined like I was something fine.

Soon though you knew it was more than you wanted.
You got caught and couldn’t get away.
Too big a heart to toss me back on the heap.

Fools gold is what I was and you kept me.
Wow, I got too call you mind.
I got the gold and you, your left with fools gold.

Shoulda left me right on the heap.
Takin another piece and hoped it was real gold.
Worth your heart for keeps.

No baby you got me.
You got fools gold.
Looking good but no more precious than a simple rock.

I was down and you lifted me up.
Dusted me off and cleaned me up.
Called me yours and I got to call you mine.

You cleaned me up good.
I went from dusty and dirty.
I shined like I was something fine

Now I am all yours.
Yes, looking good.
Fools gold!!!
