Listen. Cry. I know I have.
(The lyrics if you can’t listen)
Fool’s Gold-Lhasa De Sela
And shelter me forever
That was a hard promise to keep
I can’t blame you for the bad weather
After all that has been said and done
I won’t ask you where you’re going
Don’t keep in touch, I don’t miss you much
Except sometimes early in the morning
Now use your silver tongue once more
There’s one thing that I’d like to know
Did you ever believe the lies that you told?
Did you earn the fool’s gold that you gave me?
I forgive you wanting to be free
I realize you long to wander
And I sympathize with your roving eyes
I just can’t forgive your bad manners
Now use your silver tongue once more
There’s one thing that I’d like to know
Did you ever believe the lies that you told?
Did you earn the fool’s gold that you gave me?
Did you ever believe the lies that you told?
Did you earn the fool’s gold that you gave me?
Lhasa is a goddess. I was listening to her La Llorona today… there’s nothing like the pure anger and grief she sings so eloquently.
it’s my entire marriage, in one song. I’m bawling, but it’s a good bawling. Wish I had of known of her BEFORE she died.
She is exquisite. I felt the same when I found her, about two weeks after she died… it was crushing to realize that she was gone.
I think that makes the crying worse.
wow. this is pretty close to all i can say about this. how come i’ve never come across this awesomeness before now?! thanks for sharing, that was beautiful.
Such honest lyrics. Incredible. Thank you . . .
Sadly she died of breat cancer this past Jan….I cannot stop listening to it…
