POT OF GOLD
Lyrics & Music by Kavie Lee - 19 April 2013       

When I was a young man, a long long time ago
I left my homeland and sailed the oceans blue
Leaving my loved ones and all my dear friends too
I remember their sorrow as they waved goodbye to me

I wanted to go and search the world
No worries how life unfurled
I wanted to find life’s pot of gold and the rarest pearl!
 
I became a rolling stone, nothing to call my own
I got to thinking deeply, this life is not for me
Family and friendship they mean all the world to me
How I missed them and wished that I was back home with them

I wanted to go and search the world
No worries how life unfurled
I thought I’d find life’s pot of gold far from home
I have been from pole to pole, the new world and the old
But I couldn’t find that rainbow’s end
Not even in the land of Zen

Now I am an old man, my roaming days are done
I’ve found all the gold I sought when I was young
Back in my homeland ‘tis where my treasures are
They’re my loved ones and dear friends 
They mean all the world to me
Yes they’re my loved ones and dear friends 
They mean all the world to me

This song gives me a hollow longing feeling. You emoted the lyrics, which are really good, very well. The tune too is a nostalgic one, giving it that empty wanting feeling! Well done!

Reminiscent of the great folk songs of the 60s and 70s. A life story in 4:38, wonderful song.
