It won't be long my love
I'm off to seek my soul.
Collect the remnants left to me
out on the open road.
And to this end I leave again
upon a quest for gold.
Gold to buy your freedom;
yours to buy my own.
Up the mountain hopeful,
up the mountain strong.
Glitter lead me onward.
Glitter leave me cold.
Fell down from that mountain
to the valley down below.
When I did, began to dig
to find my buried gold.
(chorus)
And I've heard a lot about being happy.
It's rare as heaven if it's true.
I'm gonna find it if it's out there.
And bring some heaven home to you.
(end chorus)
I dig 'til I am weary,
dig 'til I am old.
Didn't find no happiness
among those piles of gold.
Wandered through the desert
didn't find no rainbow's end.
A pot of gold that's also full
of emptiness again.
(repeat chorus)
Feel this thirst upon my lips
reminding me of you.
A kiss to quench this wretchedness
a single kiss would do.
While the sunset paints its jealousy
to try to catch my eye.
I find I'm drawn to where you are;
to where_my_treasures_lie.
And I learned a lot about being happy
Searched in vain to know it's true:
the gold is always where we left it.
Gonna bring some heaven home to you.
The treasure's right back where we started.
Gonna bring some heaven home to you.
Gonna bring some heaven home to you.
Bring some heaven home to you.
