Poor Mans Paradise

[00:16.46]Far away from city life where no- one knows or sees Out along a stony trail a village lies [00:30.80]I came to it unknown to them with nothing in my hand A stranger, an alien, from a wealthy land [00:47.19]And the poorest of the poor they were just living day to day But never minding what they were [00:59.58]Honoured I was there as long as I could stay Nothing mattered more that day, everything was there [01:13.74]And even though a simple place I never saw such care They didn't have a bean but they gave it anyway [01:28.74]What they had they shared It almost seemed a poor man's paradise. Coming back to city life I thought about that day [01:52.97]Part of me I knew would never be the same [02:01.67]How could people still so poor with little they could give [02:09.75]Show me something greater, a simple way to live [02:16.79]To be content with what I had, to know that it was worth The very best that I could give, Satisfied me more than anything on earth [02:34.87]Nothing mattered more that day, everything was there And even though a simple place [02:48.66]I never saw such care They didn't have a bean but they gave it anyway [02:58.96]It anyway 'Cos what they had they shared It almost seemed a poor man's paradise. [03:14.42]But they gave it anyway 'Cos what they had they shared It almost seemed a poor man's paradise. [03:30.88]Thanks for watching.
