Don McLean - Going For The Gold Lyrics

Artist: Don McLean

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Folk

I chased a lot of rainbows, down a lot of roads
Thinking love was something to be bought or sold
But I finally found a treasure
And it's right here in your eyes
Now my golden dreams are of golden rings
Precious love without a price

I'm going for the gold for the hearts that's in you
I'm going for the love that I know will be true
I've had enough of those one night stands
I'm going for the gold that's in a wedding band

I followed those illusions that sparkled in the night
But they were fantasies that disappeared in the night
The midnight fires that burned so bright
Turn to ashes in the dawn
I didn't realize how empty I was inside
Until you came along

I'm going for the gold for the hearts that's in you
I'm going for the love that I know will be true
I've had enough of those one night stands
I'm going for the gold that's in a wedding band

I'm going for the gold for the hearts that's in you
I'm going for the love that I know will be true
I've had enough of those one night stands
I'm going for the gold that's in a wedding band

I'm going for the gold for the hearts that's in you
I'm going for the love that I know will be true
I've had enough of those one night stands
I'm going for the gold that's in a wedding band
