From Rags To Riches

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I leave the home of a lifetime

Like any son

I have hope and good intentions

And wandering into the daybreak

I learn as I go

To fall laughing into the water

Sticks and the stones are your broken promises

We wait too long to go from rags to riches

I am in love, I am in love with a feeling

A wild wild sky, a wild wild sky

Fences and tumble down bridges surround and divide

I wear a coat of many colours, of many colours

The sticks and the stones, our broken promises

I wait no longer to go from rags to riches

People are leaving the squalor

They're leaving the houses and fires

And starting out

We find the waiting country

Sticks and the stones are your broken promises

I wait no longer, I go from rags to riches

From rags to riches

I go from rags to riches

Go from rags to riches

From rags to riches
