Array ( [sid] => 68183 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Gold Miner (Completed Version) [time] => 2004-10-20 08:48:05 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I'm a gold miner,
Forever digging
In the dark caverns of your heart
For your love.
It's so dark down here,
Surrounded by memories of you,
So difficult to see.
The light on my helmet's gone,
So how will I know when I find your love?
How will I be able
To extract that love from your heart
And be able to call it mine,
And mine alone?
I remember when you were with me,
When together we engaged in strip-mining.
Oh, how wonderful it was
When we made love,
Although the effort proved futile.
After all, who can make love?
It could not be made,
It must be found.
I remember our explosive fights,
As dynamite in the vein of a shaft,
That marked the end of our
So-called relationship.
And now with such memories,
I am set back to work,
Cautiously hacking away with my sharp pick
As my useless shovel stands propped against the wall of an earthen shaft
Of your emptying heart
[-]! What will it take
For you to feel for me
What I feel for you?!
I'm just a sorry gold miner,
Forever trapped by the cave-in I've caused,
Forever deeply buried in the deepest pit of your heart!
Still,
Still, I search for gold!
Looking for your love
Has left me with gold fever!
I'm just a gold miner
Digging for your forgotten love.
