Lyrics Fool's Gold - Procol 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 then 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 then fell apart
Fools gold fooled me too
Shine so brightly, looked brand new
Fools gold broke my heart
Shone so brightly then fell apart

Fools gold fooled me too
Fools gold fooled me too
Fools gold fooled me too
Fools gold, fools gold fooled me too
