about

Track 11 from Stormy Emotions, lyric Fran Landesman, music Simon Wallace.

lyrics

That fool’s gold, it’s easy to mistake it for the real thing
A light can shine so bright and make your heart sing
And then be seen no more
Like fool’s gold, tonight the stars are shining on us both, but
At times like this I’ve learned to keep my mouth shut
‘Cause I’ve been fooled before
I’m just an old prospector, a broken dream collector
I’ve been so long in the wilderness
I argue with my mule ‘cause he’s another fool with big dreams
We’ve started out so often that we feel old
We’ve crossed that burning desert for some real gold
And now it shines so bright

Have we really found a treasure?
Are we rich beyond all measure?
Does it mean we’re finally doing something right?
Don’t let it be fool’s gold tonight

He was steely he was salty
He was crazy he was wise
There were two holes in the carpet
Where he burned it with his eyes
With his eyes, with his eyes
With his holy madman’s eyes

That fool’s gold, it’s easy to mistake it for the real thing
A light can shine so bright and make your heart sing
And then be seen no more
Like fool’s gold, tonight the stars are shining on us both, but
At times like this I’ve learned to keep my mouth shut
‘Cause I’ve been fooled before
I’m just an old prospector, a broken dream collector
I’ve been so long in the wilderness
I argue with my mule ‘cause he’s another fool with big dreams
We’ve started out so often that we feel old
We’ve crossed that burning desert for some real gold
And now it shines so bright

Have we really found a treasure?
Are we rich beyond all measure?
Does it mean we’re finally doing something right?
Don’t let it be fool’s gold tonight
