Many a man has gone away,
many a man has gone astray
Searching for the treasure
of a love that's true
I'm hoping that my
treasure can be you
And I believe, yes I believe,
the further you look, the lesser you see
I'm hoping you'll be the treasure
for me
I've seen men carry their hopes
from town to town
Trying to track lost treasure down
Some find true love
before their hopes are gone
Others lose out but they
have to carry on
And I believe, yes I believe
The further you look, good lord
The lesser you see,
I'm hoping you'll be the treas
ure for me
Travel, traveling on,
wondering if they've
done something wrong
Oh, won dering
if I'm becoming a rover
But if you be mine,
my searching is all over, Lord
The further you look, oh Lord,
the lesser you see
I'm hoping you'll be the
treasure for me
Travel, on,
Wondering if they've
done something wrong,
Wondering if I'm becoming a rover
But if you be mine,
my searching is all over
Oh Lord, the further you look,
Oh Lord, the lesser you see
I'm hoping you'll be the treasure
for me, for me, for me
I'm hoping you'll be the treasure,
darling, for me
Help me, my treasure.
Help me.
