I wanna live, I wanna 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
