The Beggar & the Thief

"Help me I am helpless" Cried the beggar to the thief "Help me find a home again I need safety and relief I'm weaker than the smallest breeze I have lost all my belief" "Come with me" the thief replied "I'll show you a land that's free Where no door has ever closed Onto the likes of you and me For just as you cannot steal the sun You cannot steal all that I've seen" Roam until I roam no more Run until I run no more "I'll go with you" the beggar cried "I'll follow you my friend I'll be the shadow on your path Round each and every bend As I stand before you now Naked until the end" "All is well" the thief he laughed "Let's hit the endless trail You will be rewarded fast As long as you don't fail I'll pick the locks upon the gates Of heaven and in we'll sail" Roam until I roam no more Run until I run no more
