In my time I have been a rich man giving favours
All the world at my feet and its many different flavours
I sucked it all dry
Now I realise
I'm a beggar on the street of love

In this great big world of plenty
I'm holding out my cup
Only you can fill it up
I'm a beggar on the street of love

And my heart keeps calling, calling ouit for you to see
You look right through me and you pass me by

Take my hand, lead me to your loving milk and honey
Cover me, keep me from the night so cold and rainy
Please, I'm down on my knees
I'm a beggar on the street of love
