Hey, can't you show me something I've not seen before Magic tricks and pirate ships, they just don't work no more I've given up on treasure chests that wash up on the shore Cause fools gold never seems to keep its shine
Hey, can't you give me something I can hold in my hands I'm 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
Hey, give me golden afternoons in May Give me silver moons that light my way And I won't ask for fools gold anymore
Hey, can't you make me feel like I haven't felt for years Let me laugh like I did when I was a kid 'til I burst into tears Let me count the diamond stars and drink the water crystal clear And I'll be richer than any man that lives with fear
Singing hey, give me golden afternoons in May Give me silver moons that light my way And I won't ask for fools gold anymore
I won't ask for fools gold anymore I won't ask for fools gold anymore
