Lyrics Cold Chisel – Buried Treasure
Text:
Lookin’ out over the reef from a heart marooned
Midnight on an infinite sea
Lookin’ up above the lovelight lost
In all the sad constellations and the stars hangin’ over me
I could sail away
And I think it once, but I never think it twice
I know I’ll stay with my treasure here in the ice
‘Cause the voyage from the night to the day
Is a journey I could measure alone
But I need someone to tear me away
From buried treasure, buried bones
Buried treasure, buried bones
There was a beautiful time that was given us
An isolated moment for two
I always wonder how a man can adjust
To the same isolation all alone getting over you
I could sail away
And I think it once, but I never think it twice
I know I’ll stay with my treasure here in the ice
‘Cause the voyage from the night to the day
Is a journey I could measure alone
But I need someone to tear me away
From buried treasure, buried bones
Buried treasure, buried bones
Did I hear you say
Is it ever time for a man to throw the dice?
I know I’ll stay with my treasure here in the ice
‘Cause the voyage from the night to the day
Is a journey I could measure alone
But I need someone to tear me away
‘Cause the voyage from the night to the day
Is a journey I could measure alone
But I need someone to tear me away
From buried treasure, buried bones
Buried treasure, buried bones
Buried treasure, buried bones
Buried treasure, buried bones
Buried treasure, buried bones
Buried treasure, buried bones
I need someone to tear me away
Buried treasure, buried bones
Buried treasure, buried bones
Buried treasure, buried bones
