I’m out here all the time
you’re behind an iron curtain
there’s one thing for certain
you could never be mine
you caught my eye one day
like a shiny nugget of gold
but I could never mine that claim I’m told
a lost mine down arizona way
I could wish and try with all my might
stand on my head and shout
but you wouldn’t pay attention there’s no doubt
I’d just be wasting my time this fine night
some things just aren’t meant to be
some elements just don’t mix together
I’m out standing now in some rough weather
but I’ll survive, this too shall pass I’ll see
I lost mine even though I never had it to start with
