Golden Ocean - Miner

Well I woke up at the station

Miles from your company

With your conscience asleep in my pocket

No, nothing that you thought you’d need need

Well I spent my time in hollows

Yeah, on and off my feet

Followed you down to the depths of the west

But you never looked back for me

Oh golden ocean, cover me in sunshine

I’ve been in the dark for too long

Hiding in the shadows at dawn

Oh golden ocean, cover me in sunshine

I need someone to love

A moment we could lay in the sun

And that could be enough

Well I came back down the mountain

With not a thing I could place at your feet

I wandered the hills till the morning

But I found nothing you’d acquire from me

So from the righteous to the rotten

I have traded my share in each

Every man is the same: if you cut to the vein

There’s a boy staring out to sea

Water’s comin in

From where the color ends

It covers my clouded eyes…

I’d been followin'

Where your love had been

Never found it in time…

No golden ocean could cover me in sunshine

I’ve been in the dark for too long

Hiding in the shadows at dawn

So golden ocean, save your sparkling sunshine

Find someone who can love

Cause I’m telling you I’m not the one

That you’re lookin' for…
