Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh, silly me my dear, for thinking that you'd stay
Gave you my heart and then you ran away
Either I'm stupid, I'm foolish, or you're playing me
But it seems, we were never really meant to be

So I thought I would try something new
I wanted to find out if I could live happy without you
And it turned out I, I wasn't living at all

But I would have never known if you had just played along

I was living the dream, believing things that just ain't true
Oh, I can't believe I ever believed in you
You had me chasing fool's gold
I was chasing fool's gold
I was chasing fool's gold

Somewhere deep down inside I knew you weren't right
But breaking your spell was a plan I never devised
I would have been here forever living for you
But I would have been living forever as your fool, oh, oh

I was living the dream, believing things that just ain't true
Oh, I can't believe I ever believed in you
You had me chasing fool's gold
I was chasing fool's gold
I was chasing fool's gold

I bit in to the apple
I took the wooden nickel, yeah
I was blinded to my core
And I went into the wrong door
And furthermore

I was living the dream, believing things that just ain't true
(I was living dreams, oh)
Oh, I can't believe I ever believed in you (I can't believe)
You had me chasing fool's gold (I ever believed in you)
I was chasing fool's gold (I was chasing fool's gold)
I was chasing fool's gold (fool's gold, oh)

I was living the dream, believing things that just ain't true
(I was living dreams, mmm)
Oh, I can't believe I ever believed in you (I can't believe I ever believed in you)
You had me chasing fool's gold (I was)
I was chasing fool's gold (I was chasing fool's gold)
I was chasing fool's gold

I was living the dream, believing things that just ain't true
Oh, I can't believe I ever believed in you
You had me chasing fool's gold

I was chasing fool's gold
I was chasing fool's gold

Line by Line Meaning

Oh, silly me my dear, for thinking that you'd stay
I made a naive mistake by assuming you would remain with me

Gave you my heart and then you ran away
I opened up to you and you hurt me by leaving

Either I'm stupid, I'm foolish, or you're playing me
There are only two explanations: either I'm gullible or you're manipulating me

But it seems, we were never really meant to be
In hindsight, it appears that we were never destined to be together

So I thought I would try something new
I decided to venture into uncharted territory

I wanted to find out if I could live happy without you
I desired to discover if I could experience happiness in your absence

And it turned out I, I wasn't living at all
To my surprise, I realized I wasn't truly living

But I would have never known if you had just played along
I could have remained oblivious if you had pretended everything was fine

I was living the dream, believing things that just ain't true
I was deluded, believing in false illusions

Oh, I can't believe I ever believed in you
I regret placing my trust and belief in you

You had me chasing fool's gold
You had me pursuing something that was ultimately worthless

Somewhere deep down inside I knew you weren't right
Deep within, I had a sense that you weren't suitable for me

But breaking your spell was a plan I never devised
I never formulated a strategy to free myself from your influence

I would have been here forever living for you
I would have remained devoted to you indefinitely

But I would have been living forever as your fool, oh, oh
However, I would have forever been trapped as your deceived and naive follower

I bit in to the apple
I fell victim to temptation

I took the wooden nickel, yeah
I made a foolish decision

I was blinded to my core
I was completely unaware of the truth

And I went into the wrong door
I entered the incorrect path or relationship

And furthermore
Additionally

I was living the dream, believing things that just ain't true
I was living in a fantasy, holding onto false beliefs

Oh, I can't believe I ever believed in you
I can't fathom how I ever had faith in you

You had me chasing fool's gold
You had me relentlessly pursuing something that was ultimately worthless

I was chasing fool's gold
I was persistently seeking something that had no real value

I was chasing fool's gold
I was fervently pursuing something that turned out to be futile

I was living the dream, believing things that just ain't true
I was caught up in an illusion, having faith in falsehoods

Oh, I can't believe I ever believed in you
It's unbelievable that I ever put trust in you

You had me chasing fool's gold
You led me on a wild goose chase for something worthless

I was chasing fool's gold
I was relentlessly pursuing something that held no real value

I was chasing fool's gold
I was tirelessly seeking an empty and deceptive prize
