Rich

Iris Temple

Everyone is rich
When nobody is poor
He said “get yourself together man
It's nothing that we can't?endure”
I?saw a special?light in you
Not one so hard?to find
Hidden by emotions
All those feelings that you left behind
Everyone is rare
Though nobody could care less
A moment of clarity
Passes by without rest
Everyone is rich
Unless someone stops the flow
A moment of bliss
For only one man

Silence falls on the marble floors
100 rooms and I'm home alone
A wise man once said
That jewels in both hands
Would buy you the world
Bring pleasure to court
These silk robes hug my form
Synthetics don't keep company no more
Persian rugs in all my chambers
Chandeliers dangle from the ceilings
All my wildest dreams imagined
Darkness settles on the palace
It's lonely at the top but so it goes
As above and so below

Everyone is rich
When nobody is poor
He said “get yourself together man
It's nothing that we can't endure”
Everyone is rich
Unless someone stops the flow
A moment of bliss
For only one man
