Rainmakers - Fool´s Gold lyrics

I heard you telling your friends
aw, he has harmless enough
theres almost nothing
you could have said
that would´ve hurt me so much
but how to risk all you got
oh, i forget, you forgot
or you would see that
harmless is one thing
I am most certainly not

it is all fool´s gold, my dear
it is all fool´s gold, my dear
it is hardly ever like you think
it is almost always like you fear
it is all fool´s gold, it is all fool´s gold

when we were young
we went dancing
to a band at the Rink
they were so far out
of tune & time
and they didn´t even blink
they were the best in the world
as far as we were concerned
I heard them two yeahrs on
it was amazing
what they would learned
twice as cool, twice as fast
twice as loud, twice as long
they were at least twice as good
and about half as much fun

it is all fool´s gold, my dear
it is all fool´s gold, my dear
it isn´t so much what you know
as what you believe to be so
it is all fool´s gold, it is all fool´s gold

I was in traffic by a man
reading a book while he drives
he could not
stay between the lanes
he could not
read between the lines
so I ran him off the road
the 1st chance that I got
see, harmless is one thing
a little knowledge isn´t

it is all fool´s gold, my dear
it is all fool´s gold, my dear
oh, sometimes the facts
can make the truth disappear
it is all fool´s gold, it is all fool´s gold

I think God honored my oath
and He one day struck me blind
because I cannot see the forest
for the matchsticks sometimes
oh, if ignorance is bliss
I am the happiest man alive
I do so wanna believe
I am so damn dumb sometimes
I imagine politics & love
where neither exist
mistake the handshake
of friendship
for the hate-shaking fist
it is like the Lost Dutchman mine
it is a fictional claim
but we have no other choice
than to keep mining that vein

it is all fool´s gold, my dear
it is all fool´s gold, my dear
it is hardly ever what you think
it is almost always like you fear
it is all fool´s gold, it is all fool´s gold
