we are dropped on this earth naked and confused
it's cruel that life makes us the way that we are
but in being close to you i feel that notion refused
and we laugh as we observe our world bizarre
you lend me your money, i give you my time
i feel it's an exchange of mutual love
because your precious days of rest are sublime
and when my pockets are full life fits like a glove
but alas i am poor and you've little time to spare
the way of the world is a cruel mistress indeed
but so long as we give each other trust, love and care
i feel that's all we should want for or need
there are no expectations or judgements abound
and to share this with you is a gift rarely found
