Pyrite (Fools Gold) Songtext
Babe, just say you miss me. Is it that hard?
Too long since I've heard about our love.
Am I in this by myself, hey yea?
With rose colored lenses on my store bought frames
To see something other than these blues and grays.
I need something different, hey, yea, yea, yea.
Cause you ain't feeling the same
Who knows? Maybe I'm crazy, that's one big maybe.
But even a fool knows when its gold, gold, gold.
I know pyrite from 24 karat, yea.
Cubic's from genuine diamond, yea.
A call from the woman who loves you and hello from a friend.
I know when it's real, I know how to tell.
I know the difference between what you say and how you feel.
Oh, oh I know when it's real.
Oh, I can tell the difference every time that you call,
But I don't need a drink I need some time in my car,
Time to drive and think, time to park and cry,
You shoulda known you were beautiful.
You shoulda known what I saw in you, yeah.
Please forgive me for feeling like it's all your fault.
A heavy heart can't carry blame for the loss.
Who knows? Maybe I'm crazy, that's one big maybe.
But even a fool knows when its gold, gold, gold.
I know pyrite from 24 karat, yea.
Cubic's from genuine diamond, yea.
A call from the woman who loves you and hello from a friend.
I know when it's real, I know how to tell.
I know the difference between what you say and how you feel.
Oh, oh I know when it's real.
You might not notice but I'm a man with pride,
And this hurts me baby deep down, deep down.
I can't let go of this, gotta know I tried.
It's pathetic baby don't lie, don't lie.
I'm a candle, you're the sun
And you're burning baby, you're burning baby.
Burning up, burning up
Burning up, burning up, burning up, yeah.
Pyrite from 24 karat yeah.
Cubic's from genuine diamond yeah.
A call from the woman who loves you,
And hello from a friend.
We'll never be more than friends
We'll never be..
