Gold Mine - Manhattan Transfer, Take 6

Losing my mind

Climbing the walls not even knowing

What it was I had to find

Wondering if I ever would

There had to be

Some kind of something or someone

Who might bring out the best in me

Only the Greatest ever could

You (then You) caught my eye

With a glow too wonderful to ignore

(Better sight) I took

(In Your light) One look

(Shining down) Through Heaven’s door

I never thought I would ever

Stumble out of darkness and prize the view

But this time I found a Gold Mine in You (in You)

This is too much

Hard to believe my life is changing, Lord

But now I’ve got Your touch

I gotta keep passin' it along

Down (deep down) in my heart

I knew there’d be someone like You someday

(On the move) Hear me

(Knowing You’ve) Steer me

(Chosen me) Just lead the way

I never thought I would ever

Stumble out of darkness and prize the view

But this time I found a Gold Mine in You (in You)

…I have to admit

I never thought I would ever

Chance upon a love I could hold on to

But this time I found a Gold Mine in You

I found a treasure (no one can measure)

But it’s true

I can’t begin to calculate my wealth

And I never thought I would ever

Stumble out of darkness and prize the view

But this time (I found) I found You

(And finders are keepers)

I never thought I would ever

Chance upon a love I could hold on to

I never thought I would ever

Spot a ray of hope in the residue

I never thought I would ever

Find another prospect to interview

But this time I found a Gold Mine in You

I have to admit.

I never
