You're colder than the snow
That freezes in Alaska
More distant to me
Than China or Tennessee
I think I'd feel more at home
If I'd live with a stranger
Standing at our bedroom door
I'm no more than a beggar
But my hand's the hand that reached for you
When you needed to be touched
And I'm the one that gave my heart
When you were starving for love
And now you're turning me away
Like I asked you for a favor
Standing at our bedroom door
I'm no more than a beggar
I'm stronger than the sight
Of you that makes me weak
Taller than the hurt
That you've built all around me
But pride can't make me walk away
My need is one step faster
Standing at our bedroom door
I'm no more than a beggar
But my hand's the hand that reached for you
When you needed to be touched
And I'm the one that gave my heart
When you were starving for love
And now you're turning me away
Like I asked you for a favor
Standing at our bedroom door
I'm no more than a beggar
