Pot of Gold

Running, searching, tracking, missing
It’s not here, where has it gone?
Looking, moving, fleeing, losing
I’ve been searching for so long

It should be right here
It should be right here
It should be right here
But it’s not

I can’t find my pot of gold
It’s just nowhere to be found
How did it get so cold?
My spade can’t even pierce the ground

I’m here at the end of the rainbow
Digging for my treasure
How have I stooped so low?
Desperate times and desperate measures

It should be right here
It should be right here
It should be right here
But it’s not

I don’t know how I’ll survive
Without the thing most dear to me
It keeps me sane and alive
When all I want is to drown in the sea

I need you, thought you needed me
But now you’re gone without a trace
My pot of gold has been set free
And I’m just another passing face

You should be right here
You should be right here
You should be right here
But you’re not

I chased the rainbow across the globe
Following your trail as best I could cope
Now I’m at the end, the trail’s gone cold
I followed the rainbow, but there’s no pot of gold.
