I wander up and down love's highway
Forever searching every byway
For tender words you may throw my way
I'm a beggar in love
It may be wrong but I don't care, dear
I'll take the kisses you can spare, dear
And still be thankful for my share, dear
I'm a beggar in love
^But like an actor on a stage
I wouldn't trade my past
I wouldn't want to play the king
In someone else's heart
Although the road I walk is lonely
I know that heart and soul you own me
So please be kind to one who's only
A beggar in love
