Fitz and The Tantrums
Fools Gold
[Intro]
Oh maybe I just wasn't good enough
To blow your mind, you know I tried
Them silver lines, they cut like blades of glass
Not worth the blood we've shed for love

[Pre Chorus]
So give it up, stop beating
Hearts have gone cold
Had enough repeating
It's all been done before

Give it up, start beating
Hearts have gone cold
Hey now
When we gonna wake up

[Chorus]
But fools gold shines like diamonds in her eyes
Thought we had a million
But baby we got nothing
Fools gold shines like words that make us cry
We just keep on digging
Find us something better for the next time, next time
Something better for the next time, next time
[Verse 2]
So maybe I was just not strong enough
To tow the line, make true the lies
The fortune found now it's all locked away
We've lost the key, hard to believe

[Pre-Chorus]
So give it up, start beating
Hearts have gone cold
Had enough repeating
It's all been done before

Give it up, start beating
Hearts have gone cold
Hey now
When we gonna wake up

[Chorus]
But fools gold shines like diamonds in her eyes
Thought we had a million
But baby we got nothing
Fools gold shines like words that make us cry
We just keep on digging
Find us something better for the next time, next time
Something better for the next time, next time
[Bridge]
Oh baby, I just wasn't good enough
'Cause baby, I wasn't strong enough

[Chorus]
But fools gold shines like diamonds in her eyes
Thought we had a million
But baby we got nothing
Fools gold shines like words that make us cry
We just keep on digging
Find us something better

But fools gold shines like diamonds in her eyes
Thought we had a million
But baby we got nothing
Fools gold shines like words that make us cry
We just keep on digging
Find us something better for the next time, next time
Something better for the next time, next time

[Outro]
Something better for the next time, next time
Something better for the next time, next time
