Riches - Deacon Blue

It’s good to know how big a life can be

Especially when it falls away so easily

And how hard it is to let you take your leave

Also I wish you all the things

That you believe in

Like riches

Now that they’re different

And work

With your burden lifted like riches

Now that they’re different

And work

With your burden lifted

I wish all those things if you would leave

Bright clothes for winter

Bright clothes for winter

When you go on your journey

Don’t say goodbye

Don’t need clothes to wear

Or money to buy

Don’t take a bed to sleep in or sleeves to cry on

And don’t go gently into that good night

And take riches

Now that they’re different

And work

With your burden lifted take riches

Now that they’re different

And work

With your burden lifted

I wish all those things if you would leave

Bright clothes for winter

Bright clothes for winter

You found a great big kingdom

And you gave it all away

And how I want live there

And how I hope you’ll stay

And take riches

Now that they’re different

And work

With your burden lifted take riches

Now that they’re different

And work

With your burden lifted

I wish all those things if you would leave

Bright clothes for winter

Bright clothes for winter

Bright clothes for winter
