Beggar On A Beach Of Gold

(albüm: Out Of The Blue - 2019)

I didn't know when I was lucky
Discontented feeling bad
Filled with envy
For possessions other people had
I found my pride had always hurt me
I fought the world to gain control
Not realizing
I was sitting on a beach of gold

Oh Lord, I'm a poor man
With all the riches I can hold
I'm just a beggar
And I'm sitting on a beach of gold

And all the problems I encountered
Gave me strength, helped me sustain
To feel the pleasure
First I had to heal the pain
When I was searching for solutions
I found the answer laid in me
I'm just a drifter
But I'm drifting on a silver sea

Oh Lord, I'm a poor man
With all the riches I can hold
I'm just a beggar
And I'm sitting on a beach of gold

I didn't have courage
My life was as dark as night
When alone in the darkness
I saw the brightest light

Let the light shine down
Let it shine, let it shine
Let it shine, shine down
Oh yeah

Are you out there now on empty
Feel there's nothing left to give
Are you sick of trying
And have you lost the will to live?
Don't 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, oh yeah
With all the riches I can hold
I'm just a beggar
And I'm sitting on a beach of gold
Oh Lord, I'm a poor man
With all the riches I can hold
I'm just a beggar
And I'm sitting on a beach of gold

With my family all around me
I've all the riches I can hold
I'm just a beggar
And I'm sitting on this beach of gold
Come and join me on the beach yeah
