Fool's Gold
Fools Gold
Dreaming of a precious gold
That I had never seen
I met you and I knew at once
I found the answer to my dream
Resplendent in her golden garb
We shared our feelings at an inn
Then we moved onto the floor
And danced to a rhythmic Beguine
Then to a place that we had sought
To seek and find our sensual tryst
And in the interim we kissed
But time had passed and we had fought
Within the happy interludes
Our love would soon diminish slow
I found you with another beau
A ghostly wraith you had become
neer existing in the flow
of life I knew now I am old
Perhaps I only found Fool’s Gold
