lyrics

I walked along the riverside and I’s searchin’ for some gold
Some reminisce of a better time left by the days of old, but I don’t know
No, I don’t know a thing for sure
I fear somewhere along the vein we must have lost sight
Lost sight of the pure

Along he came a wanderer, he said he sought to quench his thirst
He got it from his father’s blood, it’s both a blessing and a curse but he don’t know
Where he can look to find some more
He turned his eyes to the bottom of the well but there was no sign
No sign of the pure

My son he looked me in the eyes, asked me, “Ain’t there a better way?”
I searched the depths of my soul to tell him, but there was nothin’ left to say but, “I don’t know,
But I can tell you one thing for sure,
Follow your heart, keep your eyes to the road, and you’ll be sure to find,
Sure to find the pure
Follow your heart, keep your eyes to the road, and you’ll be sure to find,
Sure to find that pure.”
