“Riches and Rags” Karaoke (midi with lyrics).

Performer: Alistair Hulett.
Lyrics: Alistair Hulett.
Tune: Alistair Hulett.


I was lyin’ awake by your side last night,
And I thought of all the changes that we’ve known:
Old enough now to know I love you
And we’ll walk that lonesome valley on our own.

When you say you love me, that old sky above me
Opens up just like a morning flower for me.
Oh, I’m wild about you, and I just couldn’t live without you.
If I just had money, I’d be poor.

Time and tide, they just roll along,
And I don’t mind if they don’t wait for me.
It feels like I just got my head back again,
And I see how much we both let slip away.

Won’t you let your body thrill me?
Won’t you move just fit to kill me?
I’ll be here waitin’ when that old sun goes down.
Lie down here beside me. Who knows?
The time just might be right for falling in love again.

Life goes on with its old win and lose,
And I don’t regret a single thing I’ve done.
It’s all the same road, just night and day,
And it takes you round one time and then you’re gone.

When you say you love me, that old sky above me
Opens up just like a morning flower for me.
Oh, I’m wild about you, and I just couldn’t live without you.
If I just had money, I’d be poor.

Won’t you let your body thrill me?
Won’t you move just fit to kill me?
I’ll be here waitin’ when that old sun goes down.
Lie down here beside me. Who knows?
The time just might be right for falling in love again.

So right for falling in love again.
