I know I'd go from rags to riches
If you would only say you care
And though my pocket may be empty
I'd be a millionaire, just like Elton

My clothes may still be torn and tattered
But in my heart, I'd still be king
Your love is all that ever mattered
It's everything

So open your arms and you'll open the door
To every treasure that I'm hoping for
Hold me and kiss me and tell me you're mine evermore

Must I forever be a beggar
Whose golden dreams will not come true?
Or will I go from rags to riches
My fate is up to you

Must I forever be a beggar
Whose golden dreams will not come true?
Or will I go from rags to riches
My fate is up to you
