Lyrics

0:22Can't you show me something I've not seen before
0:28Magic tricks and pirate ships
0:31They just don't work no more
0:35Given up on treasure chests that wash upon the shore
0:42'Cause fool's gold never seems to keep its shine
0:49Can't you give me something I can hold in my hands
0:56Sick of gold rush promises and empty suitcase plans
1:03I won't go back to treasure maps and digging in the sand
1:10For I always seem to lose whatever I find
1:17Yeah I always seem to leave it all behind
1:28Give me golden afternoons in May
1:35Give me silver moons that light my way
1:42And I won't ask for fool's gold anymore
2:08Can't you make me feel like I haven't felt for years
2:13When we laughed like we did
2:15When I was a kid until I burst into tears
2:21And count the diamond stars and drink the water crystal clear
2:27And I'll be richer than any man who lives with fear
2:35Singing aaaaaay
2:39Give me golden afternoons in May
2:46Give me silver moons that light my way
2:53I won't ask for fool's gold anymore
3:25Singing aaaaaay
3:28Give me golden afternoons in May
3:36Give me silver moons that light my way
3:43I won't ask for fool's gold anymore
3:50I won't ask for fool's gold anymore
3:57I won't ask for fool's gold anymore
Can't you show me something I've not seen before
Magic tricks and pirate ships
They just don't work no more
Given up on treasure chests that wash upon the shore
'Cause fool's gold never seems to keep its shine
Can't you give me something I can hold in my hands
Sick of gold rush promises and empty suitcase plans
I won't go back to treasure maps and digging in the sand
For I always seem to lose whatever I find
Yeah I always seem to leave it all behind
Give me golden afternoons in May
Give me silver moons that light my way
And I won't ask for fool's gold anymore
Can't you make me feel like I haven't felt for years
When we laughed like we did
When I was a kid until I burst into tears
And count the diamond stars and drink the water crystal clear
And I'll be richer than any man who lives with fear
Singing aaaaaay
Give me golden afternoons in May
Give me silver moons that light my way
I won't ask for fool's gold anymore
Singing aaaaaay
Give me golden afternoons in May
Give me silver moons that light my way
I won't ask for fool's gold anymore
I won't ask for fool's gold anymore
I won't ask for fool's gold anymore
