This beggar's heart that I've been given This beggar's heart has a working door It may swing wide, it may be bolted To feel this world no more This voice I sing, it has been given This voice I sing will break down the door And what's inside will find a friend or two And sing alone no more These hands of mine will do you bidding The hands will play in time and tune And time will show these hands have mattered If they have mattered to you These eyes of mine, they take your picture These eyes that see into and for I close my eyes and I still see you And see myself no more These feet have walked me through this lonesome world These feet have dropped me here today And I'll be damned, I'm going where I'm going I've really known no other way These words I sing, they ring familiar These words I sing I've heard before Oh, fare thee well, my one and own true love I'll see you in my dreams once more This song I sing is finally over You're free to go about your way So bang the drums and turn the house lights on I've really nothing more to say
