Fools Gold Lyrics - Jill Scott

Oh, silly me my dear, for thinking that you'd stay 

Gave you my heart and then you ran away 

Either I'm stupid, I'm foolish, or you're playing me 

But it seems, we were never really meant to be 

So I thought I would try something new 

I wanted to find out if I could live happy without you 

And it turned out I wasn't living at all 

I'd rather never known if you had just played along 

I was living the dream believing things that just ain't true 

Oh I can't believe I ever believed in you 

You had me chasing fool's gold 

I was chasing fool's gold 

I was chasing fool's gold 

So I did die inside knowing you weren't right 

But breaking your spell was a plan I never devised 

I wanna be here forever if it's for you 

But I would had been living forever as your fool 

I was living the dream believing things that just ain't true 

Oh I can't believe I ever believed in you 

You had me chasing fool's gold 

I was chasing fool's gold 

I was chasing fool's gold 

I bit in to the apple 

I took the wooden neck out 

I was blinded to my core 

And I went into the wrong door 

And furthermore 

I was living the dream believing things that just ain't true 

Oh I can't believe I ever believed in you 

You had me chasing fool's gold 

I was chasing fool's gold 

I was chasing fool's gold 

I was living the dream believing things that just ain't true 

Oh I can't believe I ever believed in you 

You had me chasing fool's gold 

I was chasing fool's gold 

I was chasing fool's gold 

I was living the dream believing things that just ain't true 

Oh I can't believe I ever believed in you 

You had me chasing fool's gold 

I was chasing fool's gold 

I was chasing fool's gold
