Fool's Gold Songtext

von Procul Harum

I was trying hard to win
Save the world and be the King
I was out there in the race
Trying hard to force the pace
Fools gold
Fooled me too
Bright and shiny
Looked brand new
Fools gold
Broke my heart
Shone so brightly
Fell apart
Fools gold
Bitter sting
Broken promise
Hollow ring
Fools gold
Cast the die
Broken promise
Empty lie
I was locked in bitter strife
Fighting monsters all of my life
I was out to break the pledge
Force myself across the edge
Fools gold
Fooled me too
Bright and shiny
Looked brand new
Fools gold
Broke my heart
Shone so brightly
Fell apart
