Fool's Gold Songtext
von The Young Hearts

It′s such a shame
We spent so much time wishing away
Those hazy nights by the carnival lights
We didn't worry about a thing
Where are we going
Just don′t ask me where I've been
I swear the dreams will be the death of me
Or just break my bones again

Is it only a fool that dreams like this


I hang my head upon the romance
Of a youth I wasted away
Spent fifteen years among the diamonds and hearts
Singing songs of the better days
To tell you the truth, if I ever could
I think I'd do it all again

What do you think about the afterlife
Do you think it has those neon signs
And the radio plays your favourite songs on repeat
I think I could get used to it
Tangled up in that midnight American kiss
And the streetlight silhouette weighs on the back of my neck
But it was easier then

It′s getting dark enough to rest my head upon the romance
Of a youth I wasted away
Spent fifteen years among the diamonds and hearts
Singing songs of the better days
To tell you the truth, if I ever could
I think I′d do it all again


I swear these dreams will be the death of me
Or just break my bones again
