The first thing you did was talk to my parents
Buy my love with flowers and make an appearance
As some sort of best friend, walking me to class
And giving me hope that we could ever last
Bought me silver jewelry
You know that I liked gold
You thought you could buy me
How much did you know?
In your crowd I was cheering
In mine, where'd you go?
You were acting so tough
Till the routine got old
Fools Gold
Oooohhh
Our convos got boring, your words turned less neat
You called me your princess, and acted like king
True, we were royals inside of my dreams
I guess that delusion was sugary sweet
Bought me silver jewelry
You know that I liked gold
You thought you could buy me
How much did you know?
In your crowd I was cheering
In mine, where'd you go?
You were acting so tough
Till the routine got old
Fools Gold
Ooohhh
Lost feelings as fast your manners
Fifteen in line to your throne
Throw it away, did it matter?
Ask to be friends down the road
Told everyone you're the man
But what you don't understand
I would've waited for change
If you'd communicate
Burning your picture to flames
Bought me silver jewelry
You know that I liked gold
You thought you could buy me
How much did you know?
In your crowd I was cheering
In mine, where'd you go?
You were acting so tough
Till the routine got old
Fools Gold
Ooohhhh
