Travis Randy - Mining For Coal lyrics

I've searched the world over all of my life

Just looking for something

To make my love shine

Like a candle that burns in the night

But I came up with nothing

Till I looked in your eyes

Deeper and deeper inside

And all of the treasures

I found in your soul

Was like finding a diamond

When you're mining for coal

I've been a fool for glitter and gold

And women that sparkle shiny and cold

Like a statue carved out of ice

They shimmer like tinsel

On a blue Christmas night

But they never were quite so bright

As all of the treasures

That loving you holds

It's like finding a diamond

When you're mining for coal

I was a miner

And you were a rock in the dust

But you became flawless

When you were you polished by love

And when I found you

I lost all control

I found me a diamond

Just mining for coal
