From the recording The Basement Tapes
Lyrics
Shine so bright how was I supposed to know
Everything that glitters ain't gold
Took some time but your colors starting to show
Like a story it all unfolds
That woman is
That woman is
That woman is fools gold
But she feels just like the real thing
She got a heart that’s made out of stone
And it takes a fool to know
That woman is fools gold
Brittle and breaking from a touch that was so cold
But in the light you sure did glow
So take your bow you put on a hell of a show
I played your fool but now I know
That woman is
Woman is
That woman is fools gold
But she feels just like the real thing
She got a heart that’s made out of stone
And it takes a fool to know
That woman is
Woman is
That woman is fools gold
But she feels just like the real thing
She got a heart made out of stone
And it takes a fool to know
That woman is fools gold
Shine so bright how was I supposed to know
Everything that glitters ain't gold
