Lyrics
There were days when I dug for diamonds
But all I found were stones
Sometimes I searched for silver
And all I got were bones
Then one day I got lucky
It's a story that I've often told
The day that I found you
The day that I struck gold
I saw you across the bar-room
You were drinking all alone
Your smile was like the sunshine
When the weather was damp and cold
And I knew from that very moment
From the bottom of my soul
That the day that I found you
Was the day that I struck gold
No more lonely nights
No more lonely days
My life was on a roll
The day that I struck gold
Now the years have slipped away dear
Our story's almost told
We've lived and loved together
Through the highlights and the lows
But I can still remember
That day so long ago
The day that I found you
The day that I struck gold
The day that I found you
The day that I struck gold
