Treasure in the West
A legend told of treasure in the west, lost long ago
Soon, I became obsessed
Off did I fly across the platinum dunes
'Neath onyx sky and ivory mask of moon
At break of day under an opal's dawn
I made my way through canyons burnished bronze
I plunged my head in topaz tinted pools
Then on, I sped in search of secret jewels
Long, I've ridden through this desert
Chasing X is on the shifting sands
Somewhere hidden lies that treasure
But I fear, it's slipping through my hands
Onward, I roved, I followed silver streams
Through emerald groves and found a sparkling spring
A sapphire set in golden poppy fields
But no buried chest of riches locked and sealed
Long, I've ridden through this desert
Chasing X is on the shifting sands
Somewhere hidden lies that treasure
But I fear, it's slipping through my hands
I met a girl with lips so ruby red
Bright copper curls, and sheets of silken thread
She begged me stay with diamonds in her eyes
But I stole away to find my real prize
Long, I've ridden through this desert
Chasing X is on the shifting sands
Somewhere hidden lies that treasure
But I fear, it's slipping through my hands
Soon, I became obsessed
Off did I fly across the platinum dunes
'Neath onyx sky and ivory mask of moon
At break of day under an opal's dawn
I made my way through canyons burnished bronze
I plunged my head in topaz tinted pools
Then on, I sped in search of secret jewels
Long, I've ridden through this desert
Chasing X is on the shifting sands
Somewhere hidden lies that treasure
But I fear, it's slipping through my hands
Onward, I roved, I followed silver streams
Through emerald groves and found a sparkling spring
A sapphire set in golden poppy fields
But no buried chest of riches locked and sealed
Long, I've ridden through this desert
Chasing X is on the shifting sands
Somewhere hidden lies that treasure
But I fear, it's slipping through my hands
I met a girl with lips so ruby red
Bright copper curls, and sheets of silken thread
She begged me stay with diamonds in her eyes
But I stole away to find my real prize
Long, I've ridden through this desert
Chasing X is on the shifting sands
Somewhere hidden lies that treasure
But I fear, it's slipping through my hands
