Fool’s Gold Lyrics by Amanda Fagan

2023

[Verse 1]
They told me it wasn't worth it
That I should leave it all behind
But I couldn't help it, I couldn't stop it
You were always on my mind
They said it was a hopeless case
A waste of time
But I thought of you day and night
They say reminiscing makes you blind
[Pre-Chorus]
But all I wanted was
To rewind
[Chorus]
I wanted to go back to the lake
The one we used to walk by every day
I wanted to go back to that bridge
Yeah, we'd stay there for hours, laughing
Feeding the koi fish
You knew my favorite spot
You knew my favorite drink
Took me to that boba shop
Memorized the way I'd think
[Post-Chorus]
You'd take me down the block
To get that gelato
Thought it was paradise
But it was only fool's gold
[Verse 2]
I called you up on an impulse
And asked if we could work things out
Next thing I knew, I was waiting on the porch
For you to pull up to my house
Then things started going great
Then things started to fall apart
Only remembered the good scenes
Forgot all of the awful parts
[Chorus]
All that I could think of was the lake
The one we used to walk by every day
I wanted to go back to that bridge
Yeah, we'd stay there for hours, laughing
Feeding the koi fish
You knew my favorite spot
You knew my favorite drink
Took me to that boba shop
Memorized the way I'd think
[Post-Chorus]
You'd take me down the block
To get that gelato
Thought it was paradise
But it was only fool's gold
[Bridge]
And I remember crying, screaming
Second chances didn't go as planned
You said you didn't mean it
Never imagined things could get more out of hand
I can't believe I let you fool me once then fool me twice
What we had was the definition of a fool's paradise
[Chorus]
I was just so blinded by the lake
The one we used to walk by every day
I wanted to go back to that bridge
Yeah, we'd stay there for hours, laughing
Feeding the koi fish
You knew my favorite spot
You knew my favorite drink
Took me to that boba shop
Memorized the way I'd think
[Post-Chorus]
You'd take me down the block
To get that gelato
But those were only the good parts
It's time I let you go
Go
Go
[Outro]
Thought it was paradise
But it was only fool's gold
