I'm in a coppermine
Where the only light's your love I left behind
I'm in a coppermine
And I don't know if I'm comin' back this time

And I'm miles under underground
And everything is fallin' down
And I'm past the point of rescue
'Cause the oxygen was you

I'm in a coppermine
It's what you get
When you look for things that shine...shine
I'm in a copper mine
And I don't know if I'm comin' back this time

You think you'll hit the mother-load
Lookin' for some foolish gold
Then you find you just can't breathe
Another victim of believe

I'm in a coppermine
Where the only light's your love I left behind
Yea, left behind
Yea...

And I'm miles underground
And everything is fallin' down
And I'm past the point of rescue
'Cause the oxygen was you

I'm in a coppermine
Where the only light's your love I left behind
oh yea yea
I'm in a coppermine
And I don't know if I'm comin' back this time

I'm in a coppermine
It's what you get
When you look for things that shine...shine
I'm in a coppermine
And I don't know if I'm comin' back this time
Comin' back this time
Comin' up this time
Comin' back this time
