Beggars
When I saw you in the morning light
I just held my place
And it goes that with a little time
We give our memories grace
We were choosing opportunity
Over wrong and right
Was the target worth the vanity?
Was it worth the sacrifice?
Only beggars we were
All these lessons we learn
We can never return
We can never return
Stack of letters in the bottom drawer
All the ink turned grey
And I've tried at least a thousand times
To throw them away
And my thoughts all turn to questions now
Of the paths we take
Is the one you took the better road?
When you walked away
Only beggars we were
All these lessons we learn
We can never return
We can never return
Only beggars we were
All these lessons we learn
We can never return
We can never return
Sometimes I see the journey back there
Sometimes I wanna go
Rid the lining from my memory
Let the truth be known
I just held my place
And it goes that with a little time
We give our memories grace
We were choosing opportunity
Over wrong and right
Was the target worth the vanity?
Was it worth the sacrifice?
Only beggars we were
All these lessons we learn
We can never return
We can never return
Stack of letters in the bottom drawer
All the ink turned grey
And I've tried at least a thousand times
To throw them away
And my thoughts all turn to questions now
Of the paths we take
Is the one you took the better road?
When you walked away
Only beggars we were
All these lessons we learn
We can never return
We can never return
Only beggars we were
All these lessons we learn
We can never return
We can never return
Sometimes I see the journey back there
Sometimes I wanna go
Rid the lining from my memory
Let the truth be known
