[beggar ...]

on a beach of gold

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
fought the world to gain control
not realising
i was sitting on a beach of gold

oh lord i´m a poor man
with all the riches i can hold
i´m a beggar
and i´m sitting on a beach of gold...
