Walking with the Beggar Boys - Elf Power

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
