Ghosts of gold
Keep bringin' me down
Feel like a mile
Trapped under the ground
Can't find a clue
Not one little sound
Look here and there
My mind's spinnin' round
Love once there
Nowhere to be found
Hearts wrapped in gold
With stone all around
Jackhammer can't even find the vein
Fool's gold it can drive you insane
One more day, hour, minute of pain
Mining gold all my work is in vain
Once I held
That nugget of gold
Looked in her eyes
The story was told
Locked in her soul
Deep under the ground
Thought it was there
No light could be found
Love strikes hard, a bullet through the heart
A miner's blast, my soul's comin' apart
Down in the shaft ain't nothin' but dark
Ghosts of gold bring me back to the start
Ghosts of gold
Keep bringin' me down
Feel like a mile
Trapped under the ground
Love once there
Nowhere to be found
Keep blasting through
That hard hard mound
Wind it blows
Birds take flight
Leaves they turn
Wither in the night
Sun goes up
Sun goes down
Hope in my heart
Keeps bringin' me 'round
Hope in my heart
Keeps churnin' me round
