[Verse 1] Oh, silly me my dear For thinking that you'd stay Gave you my heart And then you ran away
Either I'm stupid I'm foolish or you played me But it seems We were never really meant to be
[Pre-Chorus] So I thought I would try something new I wanted to find out if I could live happy without you And it turned out I wasn't living at all But I would have never known If you had just played along
[Chorus] I was living a dream Believing things that just ain't true Oh, I can't believe I ever believed in you You had me chasing Fools Gold I was chasing Fools Gold(x2)
[Verse 2] Somewhere deep down inside I knew you weren't right But breaking your spell was never a plan I devised I would have been here forever living for you But I would have been living forever as your fool
[Chorus] I was living a dream Believing things that just ain't true Oh, I can't believe I ever believed in you You had me chasing Fools Gold I was chasing Fools Gold(x2)
[Bridge] I bit into the apple I took the wooden nickel I was blinded to my core And I went into the wrong door And furthermore
[Chorus x3] I was living a dream Believing things that just ain't true Oh, I can't believe I ever believed in you You had me chasing Fools Gold I was chasing Fools Gold(x2)
