From Rags to Riches

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] The 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 The wild, wild sky, the wild, wild sky [Verse 3] The 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 [Verse 4] People are leaving the squalor They're leaving the houses and fires And starting out, we find the waiting country The sticks and the stones are your broken promises I wait no longer, I'll go from rags to riches From rags to riches, I go from rags to riches Go from rags to riches, from rags to riches [Instrumental Outro]
