I’m like a crow on a wire
You’re the shining distraction that makes me fly
Oh, home
I’m like a boat on the water
You’re the rays on the waves that calm my mind
Oh, every time
But I know in my heart, you’re not a constant star
And yeah, I let you use me from the day that we first met
But I’m not done yet
Falling for you, fool’s gold
And I knew that you turned it on for everyone you’ve met
But I don’t regret
Falling for you, fool’s gold
I’m the first to admit that I’m reckless
I get lost in your beauty
And I can’t see
Two feet in front of me
And I know in my heart
You’re just a moving part
And yeah, I let you use me from the day that we first met
But I’m not done yet
Falling for you, fool’s gold
And I knew that you turned it on for everyone you’ve met
But I don’t regret
Falling for you, fool’s gold, oh-oh, ooh
Yeah, I know your love’s not real
That’s not the way it feels
That’s not the way you feel
And yes, I let you use me from the day that we first met
But I’m not done yet
Falling for you, fool’s gold
And I knew that you turned it on for everyone you’ve met
But I don’t regret
Falling for you, fool’s gold
Oh-oh, ooh
Oh-oh, ooh
