I want to live
I want to give
I've been a miner
For a heart of gold
It's these expressions
I never give

It keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old
It keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old

I've been to Hollywood
I've been to Redwood
I crossed the ocean
For a heart of gold
I've been in my mind
It's such a fine line

It keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old
It keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old

Oh yeah

Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
Keeps me searching and I'm growing old
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
Keeps me searching and I'm growing old
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old
