Elf Power - Walking With The Beggar Boys Lyrics

Well, I walked along and I felt like pretending
The earth stopped moving and nothing was ending
I saw the beggar boys in different places
They wore dirty rags and filthy faces

I told them hello and they came and they followed
I gave them my bread and they chewed and the swallowed
And they picked me up and took my hand
And I never felt like a better man

Well, love was just a dream, you know I never got no sleep
Walking hand in hand with the beggar boys down the street

Well, we talked all night and I felt very tired
So I laid down and I looked at the fire
And I thought about nothing at all
And then in the morning I was up at dawn

We talked to the people who wanted to hide us
Nothing they said then could ever divide us
And I pulled out everything I know
And I never ever went back home

Well, love was just a dream, you know I never got no sleep
Walking hand in hand with the beggar boys down the street
Take me

I was you
(You were me)
He was she
(She was he)
They were us
(We were they)
It was real
(We were free)

I was God
(God is cool)
God is you
(God is me)
I was one
(We were two)
They were three
(Three is three)

I was me
(You were you)
Love was us
(We were love)
I was gone
(You were there)
You were here
(I was everywhere)

I was this
(This is me)
I was young
(You were old)
I was hot
(You were cold)
I was all
(You were everything)

Love was just a dream, you know I never got no sleep
Walking hand in hand with the beggar boys down the street
Yeah, love was just a dream, you know I never got no sleep
Walking hand in hand with the beggar boys down the street
