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 facesI 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 manWell, love was just a dream,
You know I never got no sleep
Walking hand in hand with the beggar boys down the streetWell, 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 dawnWe 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 homeWell, love was just a dream,
You know I never got no sleep
Walking hand in hand with the beggar boys down the streetTake meI 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 streetYeah, love was just a dream,
You know I never got no sleep
Walking hand in hand with the beggar boys down the street

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

The band members are Andrew Rieger (guitarist/vocalist), Laura Carter (keyboardist), Jimmy Hughes (guitarist), Derek Almstead (bassist), Eric Harris, Heather McIntosh (cellist), and Josh Lott (drummer).
