George Fox - Goldmine lyrics

Hold me close, hold me tight Cause I'm in love with you alright Lonesome avenue goodbye Well, I've been taught and I've been told Just stake a claim and take a hold Love guarantees a goldmine I was living a life in black and white Down the avenue of coloured lights Came my rendezvous with romance Well, I thought love was meant to be A little bit rough on you and me But now I see that I'm mistaken Hold me close, hold me tight Cause I'm in love with you alright Lonesome avenue goodbye Well, I've been taught and I've been told Just stake a claim and take a hold Love guarantees a goldmine Well, I told my pa I'm going to hitch my star Throwing in with my sweetheart Take a run at being in love in the nineties 'Cause we all heard about modern love rock 'n' roll and shacking up I swore I'd never let it get to me Hold me close, hold me tight Cause I'm in love with you alright Lonesome avenue goodbye Well, I've been taught and I've been told Just stake a claim and take a hold Love guarantees a goldmine I've seen it happen since way back when Hearts that struggle and break and bend Turn to stone before it's over But you and me we draw a different line Love is here and it's right on time Just lay your head upon my shoulder Love guarantees a goldmine
