miner for a heart of gold

this song has been playing in my head and in my cd player in my car for about two days straight. i love the words, they are simple, yet so profound. the guitar and harmonica add to the greatness of the song.  love it. i love string instruments, they're my favorite. if i could, i'd probably like to play the violin. when a harmonica is added, it just makes for an awesome sound, so i think. plus, i can connect with the lyrics and i know many of you can also. not saying i'm old at all, but i've definitely been "searchin' for a heart of gold; i've been a miner for a heart of gold."

I wanna live
I wanna give
I've 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

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

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

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