Buried Treasure
You know, I still haven't learned
 I'm still digging that same hole
 Over and over
 Expecting to find something at the bottom
 But I make the mistake of always looking in the same place
 When I dig, I dig deep
 Hoping to find what I've been looking for
 Hours and days I spend
 Hoping that if I can't get out, it will be you who will help
 Who will give me your hand, and pull me back out
 But I'll give you this, you've never failed
 Never failed at always leaving at the time I need you the most
 The times when I've dug in too deep, you're not there to help and pull me out
 But I've realized, I've been wishing on a shooting star, in New York, where the lights are too bright to see the sky
 I've thrown my penny into a wishing well, that's gone dry
 I gave my heart to you, but your hands were full
 I miss the old you, who for a second, taught me what love really is
 But really, I've just been digging a hole trying to find buried treasure,
 That really was never treasure at all
