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
 That keep me searching for a heart of gold
 And I'm getting old
 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
 That keeps me searching for a heart of gold
 And I'm getting old
 Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
 And I'm getting old
 
 Keep me searching for a heart of gold
 You keep me searching for a heart of gold
 And I'm getting old
 I've been a miner for a heart of gold
