• A dark cloud rolls in
    an omen, maybe
    i look in my wallet
    nothing, it's empty
    last month's bill
    don't remember how much it costs

    but what have I really lost?

    my account has run empty
    so has my fridge
    the house had to be morgage
    what a rough time it is
    with all that has happend, I never see the cost

    so what have I really lost?

    it's winter now
    my coat barely keeps me warm
    I can still walk
    but my shoes are worn
    my face is stricken by frost

    but what have I really lost?

    so what if I don't have a house
    so what if I don't have a stove
    i don't care where I live
    any place I go I can call home
    life is short, but It has just begun
    and I can say right now
    this moment is not the worst one

    spring is here
    and so I still thrive
    though to some people they say
    it's a miracle I'm alive
    but what's the real cost?

    what have I really lost?

    nothing
