Sleep comes easy
And takes me down
But all I hear is that sound
Here I stand beside the water
On this shifting sand
Across the sea I know
There's a land somewhere I'm sure
A place for me to go
I don't understand, I've searched high and low
For fools gold
It shines above, fuels the fire below
For fools gold
It can't be found
Ask a fool who knows
Sometimes I think it's all too easy
Just to exist and never want for more
But when it shines, deep down inside I'm not so sure
When it shines, grown men cry
There's no cure I know
For fools gold
It shines above, fuels the fire below
For fools gold
It can't be found
Ask a fool who knows
Here I stand beside the water
On this shifting sand
Across the sea I know
There's a land somewhere I'm sure
A place for me to go
I don't understand, cross my heart and soul
For fools gold
It shines above, fuels the fire below
For fools gold
It can't be found
Ask a fool who knows
