Fool's Gold
Sofia Carson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Or are you unable to do that for me?
I won't let you in
'Til you make up your mind (make up your mind)
I have to know you
'Til I let you know me, ooh-ooh (ooh-ooh)
I've been working overtime learning how to love myself
Baby, you feel it, I got diamonds in my eyes you said
Yes, my ego likes you, my intuition pulling back
Oh, down in my soul, I need to know
Are you for real or fool's gold?
You're pulling me close, but I need to know
Are you for real or fool's gold?
Ah
Make up your mind
Or are you unable to do that for me?
I won't let you in
'Til you make up your mind (make up your mind)
'Til I let you know me, ooh-ooh (ooh-ooh)
I've been working overtime learning how to love myself
Used to trust too easy, but I learned that from someone else
Baby, you feel it, I got diamonds in my eyes you said
Yes, my ego likes you, my intuition pulling back
Oh (oh), down in my soul (soul), I need to know (know)
Are you for real or fool's gold?
You're pulling me close, but I need to know
Are you for real or fool's gold?
(Are you fool's gold?)
It's always been you, it's always been you (pullin' me close)
Are you for real or fool's gold? (I need to know, fool's gold)
It's always been you, it's always been you (oh)
Are you for real or fool's gold? (Are you fool's gold?)
