Beggar's Song

Anita Lipnicka


You sit in your palace 
I'm out on the street 
You drink the champagne of your sweet life 
I've got nothing to eat 
But I've got more fingers 
Than I've got friends 

I wanna be the sunlight 
That illuminates your skin 
Be the one you're waiting for 
The one that you let in 
But whenever I see you 
It always seems to rain 

Don't ever give up 
Just look up 
There's an angel on the way 

I wanna hold you, touch you 
Melt inside your mouth 
Dive deep inside you 
And never come on out 
The days are getting shorter 
And at nights I burn up inside 

I'm standing on a bridge, in the fog 
Just waiting for you 
I know you'll never come 
But wait is what I'll do 
And see the sunrise 
Knowing you're around
