Fool's Gold - Briston Maroney

Hey can't you show me something I've not seen before Magic tricks and pirate ships - they just don't work no more. I've given up on treasure chests that wash upon the shore 'Cause fool's gold never seems to keep its shine. Hey can't you give me something I can hold in my hands The sick of gold rush promises and empty suitcase plans I won't go back to treasure maps and digging in the sand For I always seem to lose whatever I find Yeah, I always seem to leave it all behind Hey, give me golden afternoons in May Give me silver moons that light my way And I won't ask for fool's gold anymore Hey, can't you make me feel like I haven't felt for years When we laughed like we did when I was a kid until I burst into tears And count the diamond stars and drink the water crystal clear And I'll be richer than any man that lives with fear Singing Hey, Give me golden afternoons in May Give me silver moons that light my way I won't ask for fool's gold anymore. I won't ask for fool's gold anymore. I won't ask for fool's gold anymore.

Evelyn I hate to wake you up again It's just that I can't sleep When any part of me thinks that you got doubt on your mind Evelyn I know our love so heaven sent But it's hard to feel angelic when everything I'm tellin' you feels out of line We used to talk so much now we don't say a thing Stuck in silence and I'm so tired, you tryna see what all this means So tell me what it is Won't you please, just tell me what it is 'Cause I know that there's a window to your heart that I'm not seein' through I just gotta find my way in Won't you tell it to me straight, you know I would appreciate Often in the way of all the things we wanna say Know that there's a window to your heart that I'm not seein' through I just gotta find my way in Dear Evelyn You always look so innocent With a brain so academic, why can't I prevent this? You bringin' me down I wanna know what point along the way I started askin' you to put away All of these feelings, that ain't workin', sealin' I say it to you We used to walk around, hangin' on by a thread Stuck in bottom, was hidin' what I knew would set us free Won't you tell me what it is Won't you please, just tell me what it is I know that there's a window to your heart that I'm not seein' through Just gotta find my way in Tell it to me straight, you know I would appreciate Often in the way of all the things we wanna say Know that there's a window to your heart that I'm not seein' through I just gotta find my way in With you Evelyn Oh, oh, oh, oh-woah Oh

Half a bottle down, a mile out of town and it hits me Everything I'd come to love was comin' back to get me Blue light in the rear-view left me with a clear view unloaded Got a lot of love, but I don't really know how to show it And I grew on my own, I told you so I did not need someone to hold Back my heart, the way you've done And you were doin' But why can't I be someone else tonight? I'd give anything to make this right And you don't know what you've been missin', babe So won't you turn off the lights and come back inside And then you'd find, you'd rather not Back into thе black, I was ready for somebody differеnt Rememberin' these days as much as I'm forgettin' If you're losin' tracks, steppin' back and you know it Count up all your friends, is there anybody left to ignore this? But why can't I be someone else tonight? And I'd give anything to make this right And you don't know what you've been missin', babe So won't you turn off the lights and come back inside And then you'd find, you'd rather not And I will hold my breath until I cannot anymore And why do I pray to a God that I know I can't afford? Am I wrong to be confused if I am still in love with you? Am I wrong to feel anything at all? But why can't I be someone else tonight? Oh, I'd give anything to make this right Oh, I'd give anything to make this right I'd give anything to make this right
