Said the shepherd to the thief                                                        
Why­ do you look at life this way
I have my wife a love to keep
I have my house I have my sheep
It is all
I ever need
I can be happy
Said the thief on his reply                                                            ­
Guess I'm not that kind of guy
I had my hopes turn to empty dreams
I have hate and jealousy
It is not
What I need
I cant be happy
How can I be happy

Did you know I want to love you
Maybe there is something bigger
Than the things that you do not have
Its what you are
Its what you are
Its all that you need
And you can be happy
You can be happy
With empty hands
You'll be a rich man
