Can't you show me something I've not seen before

Magic tricks and pirate ships - they just don't work no more.

Given up on treasure chests that wash upon the shore

'Cause fool's gold never seems to keep its shine.



Can't you give me something I can hold in my hands

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



Give me golden afternoons in May

Give me silver moons that light my way

And I won't ask for fool's gold anymore



Can't you make me feel like I haven't felt for years

When we laughed like we did when I was a kid until I burst into tears

And count the diamond stars and drink the water crystal clear

And I'll be richer than any man who lives with fear



Singing ay~~

Give me golden afternoons in May

Give me silver moons that light my way

I won't ask for fool's gold anymore.



I won't ask for fool's gold anymore.

I won't ask for fool's gold anymore.
