I was a pauper   I was second class   I was a moment   that quickly passed   I was a gambler, gambled on you   Rain shone and the sun, it just poured through   wind whistled a whispered word it was true   The world is a stage, it revolves around you      How are you feeling   on this broken day   Where are you heading   I heard you lost your way   How is your mind, is it still confused   Has anyone told you you're being used   You're fighting a battle that you're going to lose   The world was a stage that revolved around you      I said to the blazing moon   I want to be what I want to be   You said that your aim in life   was to break through and be free   and be free, to be free, oh, to be free      You bought me a diamond   And what's that for?   I stole you some money   because I thought you were poor   Yes I was a gambler, gambled on you   Rain shone and the sun, it just poured through   Wind whistled a whispered word it was true   Want something for nothing, lady that's you   That's you
