I want to live, I want to give
I been a miner for a heart of gold
It's these expressions I never give
That keep me searchin' for a heart of gold

And I'm gettin' old
I been to Hollywood, I been to redwood
I've crossed the ocean for a heart of gold
I been in my mind, it's such a fine line

That keeps me searchin' for a heart of gold
And I'm gettin' old
That keeps me searchin' for a heart of gold
And I'm gettin' old

That keeps me searchin' for a heart of gold
That keeps me searchin' and I'm growin' old
I keep searchin' for a heart of gold
I've been a miner for a heart of gold

And I'm gettin' old
