If I only knew then what I know now 

You wouldn't be sayin' goodbye 

But I let you down, I was never around 

When you needed me there by your side 

I took a perfect love & gave you a perfect heartache 

I took a band of gold & made a 24-carat mistake 

& turned it into... 

CHORUS: 

Fool's gold, and I was a fool 'cause I let you go 

Fool's gold, yes I was a fool 'cause I didn't know 

Too many times I just didn't try 

Now all I hear is you sayin' goodbye 

Starin' at an empty hand full of fool's gold

If I'd spent the time just holdin' you tight 

& sharin' my feelings with you 

Then you'd understand what's inside of this man 

& you'd know what I'm goin' through 

I know that I was wrong now that it's too late 

I took a band of gold & made a 24-carat mistake 

& turned it into... 

(chorus)
