A Beggar On A Beach Of Gold

歌詞

I didnt know when I was lucky Discontented feeling bad Filled with envy For possessions other people had I found my pride had always hurt me Fought the world to gain control Not realising I was sitting on a beach of gold Oh lord Im a poor man With all the riches I can hold Im a beggar And Im sitting on a beach of gold The problems I encountered Gave me strength helped me sustain To know the pleasure First I had to cure the pain When I was searching for solutions I found the answer lay in me Im a drifter But Im drifting on a silver sea Oh lord Im a poor man With all the riches I can hold Im a beggar And Im sitting on a beach of gold I didnt have courage My life was as dark as night When alone in the darkness I saw the brightest light Let the light shine down Are you out there now on empty Feel youve nothing left to give Sick of trying Have you lost the will to live? Dont be drowning in the shallows With the beach so near at hand Hear the voice say Stand up get up And join me on the gilded sand Come and join me on the beach With all the riches I can hold Cause Im a beggar And Im sitting on a beach of gold Oh lord Im a poor man With all the riches I can hold Im a beggar Im sitting on a beach of gold My children my salvation The father to this man Theyre my teachers Playing on the golden sand With my family all around me Ive all the riches I can hold Im a beggar Sitting on a beach of gold Oh lord Im a poor man With all the riches I can hold Im a beggar Sitting on a beach of gold
