OK, here's one that took me a while to find the words for. None of the sites I usually use had a copy of the lyrics or even heard of the band. It was a song (and band) introduced to me a long time ago (ok, only 18 years ago, but to my kids, that's a long time ago
) by a friend that I've since lost touch with, unfortunately. No promises on if the link will still work, as I had to dig hard for it (found it via the band's MySpace page). And it is a live version of the song, and not nearly as good a version as I hoped to find.
"Heart of Gold" - Sweet F.A.

What'cha gonna do when the well runs dry, baby?
Sit on the bank and cry, cry, cry.
What'ca gonna do when all your dreams crumble as they must,
when you realize your name is written in the dust.
I know just how you feel,
I know the pain you feel inside is real,
It's breaking your heart of gold
Oh baby, it's breaking your heart of gold
Stare into your crystal ball, what do you see?
Are the lights so bright, your eyes so blind you've closed the book on me
Everything you're after has been locked behind the door,
Lost without the key, won't be needing any more
I know just how you feel,
I know the pain you feel inside is real,
It's breaking your heart of gold
Oh baby, it's breaking your heart of gold
OOOOO, it can make the world so cold
Oh baby, it's breaking your heart of gold
Step by step, so many times, you just can't win
So you take what you can get before this story ends,
Babe, begin again
I know just how it feels,
I knows the pain that you feel inside is real
It's breaking your heart of gold
Oh baby, it's breaking your heart of gold
OOOOO, it can make the world so cold
Oh baby, it's breaking your heart of gold
OOOOO, now it's breaking your heart of gold
Oh baby, it's breaking your heart of gold
OOOOOO, now it's breaking your heart of gold
OOOO, it's breaking your heart
What'cha gonna do when the well runs dry, baby?
Sit on the bank and cry, cry, cry.
