Heart of Gold Lyrics

Heart of Gold
(Neil Young, addendum by Julien Aklei)


I wanna live, I wanna give
I've been a miner for a heart of gold.
It leaves impressions I never mention
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold.

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
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold.

I saw a soldier down in Texas
He was combing his silver beard
His beard was blowing in the by-winds
He was shining with a heart of gold.

Silver moon, forgotten soldier
Bent like a paperclip beneath the sky
Your heavy burden, I'll take it from you
You keep on searching for a heart of gold.

Some will ramble and some will crumble
Some will be as though they never were.
Me I'm walking down the by-roads
Searching lightly for a heart of gold.
