no more fool's gold
She was pretty but so was I
She was out there but I was shy
With her by day and next to me by night
I had to hide while she stood by your side
It was clear that I just wasn’t worth the fight
My heart was bullet proof
Saving me every time you shot me I rose
How I survived the heartbreak no one knows
And when you said my name my heart froze
Hoping that we’d be stuck in the moment
and that I’d have total control
Then it hit me that I was better than that
I was smart strong and beautiful in fact
I didn’t have to be second to her
Or the a shadow for guy’s to react
I came out of the shadows the last night
I said no more to feeling like pyrite
I was finally the real gold
and any guy who found me had fount an mine
