"Fool's Gold" lyrics

"Fool's Gold"

I'm like a crow on a wire
You're the shining distraction that makes me fly, home
I'm like a boat on the water
You're the raise 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 your fool's gold
And I knew that you turned it on for everyone you met
But I don't regret
Falling for your 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 your fool's gold
And I knew that you turned it on for everyone you met
But I don't regret
Falling for your fool's gold

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 your fool's gold
And I knew that you turned it on for everyone you met
But I don't regret
Falling for your fool's gold

"Fool's Gold" was released as the fifth promotional single on the 13th of November 2014.
Jamie Scott, a songwriting collaborator for One Direction, told MTV about writing Fool's Gold with Harry Styles, "I was in the studio with Harry, kind of just recording vocals, and it happened so quick. It took on this amazing sound and meaning for me as a writer on this album."
These lyrics describe a girl who is not what she seems, although the protagonist is still attracted to her despite her attempts to use him. He even doesn't regret that she manipulates him.
