Heart of Gold Lyrics

I want to live (I want to live)
I want to give (I want to give)
I've been a miner for a heart of gold (for a heart of gold)
All these expressions (all these expressions)
I never give (I never give)
That keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old

I want to live
I want to give
I've been a miner for a heart of gold
All these expressions I never give
That keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting 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 just a fine line
That keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old

Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
Been a miner for a heart of gold
Crossed the ocean for a heart of gold
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old

Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
Been a miner for a heart of gold
Crossed the ocean for a heart of gold
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
Been a miner for a heart of gold
Crossed the ocean for a heart of gold
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
Been a miner for a heart of gold
Crossed the ocean for a heart of gold

Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old

I want to live (I want to live)
I want to give (I want to give)
I've been a miner for a heart of gold (for a heart of gold)
All these expressions (all these expressions)
I never give (I never give)
That keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old

I want to live
I want to give
I've been a miner for a heart of gold
All these expressions I never give
That keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting 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 just a fine line
That keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old

Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
Been a miner for a heart of gold
Crossed the ocean for a heart of gold
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old

Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
Been a miner for a heart of gold
Crossed the ocean for a heart of gold
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
Been a miner for a heart of gold
Crossed the ocean for a heart of gold
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
Been a miner for a heart of gold
Crossed the ocean for a heart of gold

Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
